Tailgate/Hatch Latch Assembly - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

New to the site and glad that I found it. I have learned a lot from you guys already. I have a '72 Suburban that I bought at the end of last year. The bracket that bolts onto the hatch is gone. The tailgate half is there, but not sure if it would be a good idea to replace them both. Does anyone know where I could find these? Thanks in advance. I will get pictures of my ride up soon.

good Luck, Tailgates and hatches are a hot commodity when they come up in good shape. This site is great for resources though.
