Re: 89 Suburban Tailgate Won't Open

Got my tailgate opened today. The problem was the side window channels of the tailgate were rusted out. That caused the bottom of the glass and the horizontal metal to catch on the release mechanism when the window was lowered or raised, and it knocked the retaining clip on the rod that releases the left side. I ordered new channels which should fix the problem.
