Expert Answers about GMC Tailgate


  • Recommended Tailgate Gasket For A 2023 Nissan Frontier
  • Hey Stephen, Tailgate seals like the TrailSeal Tailgate Gasket # 834532001583 are universal fits so it really just comes down to style of the gasket in my opinion. This seal has a flat surface which I find typically makes great contact with tailgate but if you ever get anything sticky on it will annoy the hell out of you sticking to the tailgate and start to pull away from the bed. I've also seen this bit when it's extremely hot out with other seals and I'm personally not a fan. I'd...

  • Tailgate Lift Assist Device For a 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500
  • Larry, you will need to use the universal Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist # 74211 as there is not a custom fit tailgate assist device for your 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche 1500.

  • Will The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock Work With TailgateCamera Handle On 2006 Dodge Ram 2500?
  • While the TailgateCamera Handle With 180 Degree Camera for 2002-2008 Dodge Ram looks identical to the factory handle on your 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 I have never worked with this product so I cannot tell if any of the internal mechanisms that the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL3400 attaches to are different. If you can get TailgateCamera to confirm if the internals of their handle are the same as the factory with the only difference being the camera portion there is no reason the Pop...

  • Is TruXedo Pro X15 Rail Notched for Tailgate Handle on 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 With MultiPro Tailgate
  • Yes, the rail is notched on the # TX64FR so it will not interfere with the OEM tailgate handle on your 2024 Sierra. This cover is specifically designed to accommodate the handle and the MultiPro tailgate.

  • Recommended Pop & Lock Tailgate Lock For A 2017 Honda Ridgeline
  • Hi Saher, For a 2017 Honda Ridgeline you'd need the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Handle # PL8675 if your current tailgate lock has a built in camera or the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8600 if it does not. I've attached a couple of videos below where either Rob or Ryan will walk you through the installation process, depending on the kit you choose.

  • Does Tailgate King Adjustable Truck Bed Extender Come with Tailgate Assist
  • The Gate King Adjustable Truck Bed Extender part # GK64FR does not have any tailgate lowering assistance built into it. We do have that separately with the DeeZee lowering tailgate assist part # DZ43200 which is a confirmed fit for your 2014 Ford F-150.

  • Recommended Tailgate Lock For a 2014 Toyota Tundra Crew Max
  • I recommend the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock with Plug & Play T-Harness # PL94FR for your 2014 Toyota Tundra Crew Max. This kit includes the Plug and play harness so that you are not tapping into any wires on your Tundra. It will allow you to lock and unlock your tailgate with your existing key fob or power locks.

  • How Does the Lippert Tailgate Storage System Install On a Bumper
  • Hey Jarvis, the Lippert Tailgate Storage System # LC404069 would install using either the Lippert Tailgate Storage System Mounting Kit # LC432223 or # LC432336 using the included brackets and hardware. To answer your second question, the tailgate storage system # LC432223 would install under the bumper and # LC432336 would install over the bumper.

  • Power Tailgate Lock and Switch Kit For a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WT
  • I do have one option for you since the Replacement BOLT Lock Cylinder # BL709231 is for the Tailgate Handle with BOLT Lock # BL5922987 and will not replace the factory lock on your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500WT. For that cylinder you will need to visit a Chevrolet dealer. We do offer the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8140 that will allow for you to use the power locks on your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 WT to lock and unlock your tailgate so that you will not need the key.

  • Recommended High Low Adapter to Allow Tailgate to Open While Towing Micro Minnie Winnie
  • Dan, I would need to know how much room you need to be able to open the tailgate with the trailer attached but you could theoretically use the Roadmaster High-Low Adapter for Tow Bars # RM-048-8 which would lower your receiver 8" likely giving you the clearance needed to drop the tailgate.

  • Is the 2012 GMC Canyon Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock with Handle High Quality
  • Thanks for reaching out, George! The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock with Handle # PAL1700C is plastic with a chrome finish added to it. According to the reviews we've received people are saying the quality is pretty similar to what came as factory on their truck so I wouldn't say it is high quality, but I also wouldn't say you're downgrading by replacing your OEM 2012 GMC Canyon handle with this. When I'm shopping online 1-Star ratings make me a little nervous as well so you aren't alone...

  • B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount # BWTS20066BMP Work With A Ford 2-1/2" Hitch
  • You are correct that the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount # BWTS20066BMP was made with the GM MultiPro fold-down tailgate in mind. Basically, the shank is designed slightly differently which allows the tailgate to fold down all the way without making contact. That said, it will definitely work with the 2-1/2" hitch on your 2024 Ford F-250 Tremor. I know Ford now has their new Pro Access Tailgate that folds out and down, and this has not yet been tested with the B&W ball mount. So you may want...

  • Will The SportRack Ridge Swing 4 Bike Rack Clear A 2023 Ram 1500 Tailgate
  • Hey Phil, The SportRack Ridge Swing 4 Bike Rack # SR2415 swings out 36" when fully extended so you'll want to measure out 36" from the center of your trailer hitch receiver to gauge if you'll be able to open the tailgate with the rack installed.

  • Can Locks Be Added To A BAKFlip Tonneau Cover
  • Hey Rob, There unfortunately isn't an add-on lock for BAKFlip tonneau covers so the only way you'd be able to prevent someone from getting into the bed of your truck would be to close the cover and lock the tailgate. We do offer tailgate locks from Pop & Lock that you can install to automatically lock the tailgate with your key fob. If you're interested then I'd need to know the year/make/model of your truck.

  • Rack For Carrying 2 Bikes in Bed of 2020 Ford F-150 With Tonneau Cover Open
  • Hey Chris, There are a couple options for you to carry your bikes in the bed of your 2020 Ford F-150 with the tonneau cover open, but the Thule Bed Rider Pro # TH38YC requires the use of the inside of the truck's rails, which is how your roll-up tonneau attaches to your truck. One thing you can do instead is use a couple of the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack # TH93VR. The # TH93VR attaches with set straps that go through your tailgate opening, so you just close your tailgate...

  • Dimensions of the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack JET-5000
  • From the center of the tube to the furthest part of the motor housing on the Stromberg Carlson Electric Trailer Jack item # JET-5000 measures right at 5-3/4". The distance from the mounting bracket to the top of the jack is 23". This jack would clear a tailgate if the measured distance from the back of the tailgate to the jack mounting point on the trailer was 24", which gives 1" of clearance. It can not be mounted at 90 degrees. No electric jack like this can. If you are worried about...

  • Pop & Lock Tailgate Lock For 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500 & Does it Have to Run to Cab
  • Hey there Chase, thanks for the question and I believe you're asking for the Pop & Lock for your 2019 Chevy Silverado 2500, and the correct part number for your truck is the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock - Power # PL8145. I also took a look at the instructions for you, and they do specify that you need to run the wire up to the cab and engine compartment.

  • Will Lippert Quick Drop Tongue Jack Allow for Tailgate Opening on F-150
  • Hi Edie; we haven't had any specific reports on whether or not the tailgate can sit open when hooked up to a trailer with the # LC733926 installed. To some extent this will depend on the ball mount you're using since that determines the height of the coupler. What I can tell you is that the distance from the top of the bracket to the top of the jack with the handle flipped down is 13-1/8". When you flip the handle over so it is sticking up that same distance is 16-1/2". You can compare...

  • Will The Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist 74211 Fit A 2004 GMC Envoy
  • To our knowledge the Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist # 74211 has not been test fitted on a 2004 GMC Envoy XUV. Technically the lift assist is not made to be custom fitted for any one vehicle, and there is a pretty long list of trucks that it will work with. I have included some dimensions below which you can reference. The GMC Envoy is not as common these days, so it is possible that it will work for your application, but the only way to know for sure is to get one and give...
