    Rear upper tailgate

    I have found a rear upper tailgate, but it does not have the mounting hardware. Anybody know where I might find these parts? Thanks.

    Unavailable anywhere. You may have some luck trolling ebay UK, but the last set that came up (back in october I think) they wouldn't ship to the US. These are by far the most difficult pieces to come up with. I don't think anyone in the US has any.
    If you don't mind non original, I suppose you could fashion the proper parts, since they aren't all that complicated.

        Its not really as dire as all that. Our hosts have most of the hardware -



        what they do not have is available from other vendors in the US and UK

            Typical reply I guess.

            I can add that I've purchased Item 41, Exterior handle assembly, from RN - and it came complete with the seal and green label. Also purchased Item 30, Lock Arm Set - wrapped in wax paper and also with green label.

                I'm sure that you can get everything but the hinge pockets that mount to the roof. Keep your eyes peeled and ask around. If folks know you are looking, you might get lucky. The hinge pockets are "handed" left and right, so you need two different parts.

                  Ike, thanks for the link.

                  If parts are showing as No Longer Available, let us know, we can mostly source good, used parts or from our good friend Ike......

                  There is no real need for negative comments, we all want to keep the interest and camaraderie going for the Series vehicles.

                      I found all these NOS parts with little effort, mostly keeping my eyes open and making a few phone calls.

                      I also found a NOS Frame - I only used the frame, the outer skin is available if anyone needs it.
