Re: If you had to buy an aftermarket tailgate .... ?

Not sure what "company" furnishes them but when I bought my after market gate I purchased from GMC Paul. I opted for the plain, no lettering styled gate but he also carried the lettered gate. Couple hundred difference price wise and at the time funds were running low with the restore. Still liking the plain no lettering but the lettered gate was a thought. Holding up VERY well, have sat on it, stood on it, feels very solid and the body guy had good things to say about the fit. GMC Paul has first rate customer service to boot. Have bought several parts from him, all fit as needed with no issues. Just my $0.02

Also is a supporting member here who KNOWS these trucks.
