Is there any chance you can straighten your tailgate? I rebuilt one a couple years ago by replacing the bottom tube and working out the dents. It also needed the rivits replaced in the corner which are availble at any John Deere dealer. I then sold it at the Iowa rally. The tooling and royalties to Dodge have a good deal to do with the price of the repopped tailgates. It's hard to believe that they are made from one piece of metal when you actually study one.
