Expert Reply:
The Stromberg-Carlson 4000 series tailgates including # VGM-99-4000 are not rated to carry any weight so they do not have a capacity. Specifically they say "This gate is not designed for weight bearing applications. DO NOT stand on this gate."
The 100 series, # VGM-99-100 for a 2006 GMC Sierra, has a 100 pound capacity.
