Stromberg Carlson 5th Wheel Tailgate Installation - 2005 GMC Sierra- Video

Today on our 2005 GMC Sierra, we will be installing the Stromberg Carlson 100 Series 5th wheel tailgate with open design, and that's part number VGM-99-100. We will begin our installation with the tailgate down, and then raise it up slightly so we can use a flathead screwdriver to pry the tab for the side cable away, and detach the cable from the truck. We will do this on both sides. On the passenger side, we can then lift the tailgate out of it's hinge, and with an extra set of hands completely remove our tailgate. Next, we'll set the new tailgate into place. Our Stromberg Carlson tailgate comes with latches that will need to be installed on both passenger and driver side. more
