Hi all,
My tailgate won’t open on my ‘03 Ram. I took off the tailgate cover on the inside of the bed and wiggled the rods, and sure enough, the left rod (viewed from inside the bed) had come off the far left side (not from the latch).
I still can’t open the tailgate, and am hoping I can somehow open the tailgate and reattach the rod myself. Warning: I am a 70 yr old lady who has put almost every single mile on this truck during the last 21 years, but I am not familiar with repairs, but willing to learn.
Any information would be greatly appreciated!
