67-72 C10 tailgate latch kit
This is a kit that replaces your factory tailgate latch mechanism with more modern latches for smoother and easier operation.
These kits will come with everything you need to swap out your old tailgate hardware to this new kit.
The kit reuses your factory handle and rods that connect the handle to the latches.
Installation requires ZERO welding. Some trimming is required on the tailgate itself. You will also need to drill a hole in the tailgate jamb to install the provided rivnut, and lastly a hole in the bedside jamb for the striker mount. A template is provided for the trimming, and the brackets mount to existing holes and will locate the additional holes.
Overall, this is a very simple install!
Parts now come coated in a zinc finish!!!
*****Due to the manufacturing of the factory and aftermarket parts for these older trucks, Tre 5 Customs can not guarantee the fit of our product. Some modification to the bracketry is required on occasion.******
*****We do not offer returns on these if they have been installed*****
+++++++++We are currently out of stock as of 3/7/2024. We expect to have more ready in approx. 3 weeks. You are welcome to order a kit now, but delivery time will be delayed++++++++++++++++

I like the product but there is a LOT of fine tuning that goes with it that you don't mention Have to elongate some holes grind some edges so they clear better
