The best way we found would be to drill a pilot holes after the internal brace has been installed properly. If you have a right angle drill you can drill through the center of the welded bolts on the reinforcement plate.

@bigern79

Awesome video series, they helped me a ton. Thank you! I believe the tailgates came from the factory with a vapor barrier. My understanding is that they were rather cheap and certainly all long gone by now. How important do you think it is to make/replace one?
@BroncosandPartsGarage
@BroncosandPartsGarage 2 года назад
Thanks you. I’ve never seen vapor barrier in tailgate. I’d simply cut a piece of thin, semi-rigid pink foam sheeting to fit directly under the inspection plate. My concern with TG will always be sealing the bottom seams from the inevitable standing water. (But keeping drain holes open). In a quick follow up video we will show how we sealed up the outer/ lower edge of the tailgate seam.

When you remove the torsion bar- try doing so with the tailgate closed as much as possible while a friend removes the pigtail bracket. Doing so removes some tension.

Hi Chris. Thank you so much for the video. You said to lubricate the window slides and you would do it later in the video. I can’t find where you did that. What did you use?
@BroncosandPartsGarage
@BroncosandPartsGarage 2 года назад
I used white lithium grease. If your in an area with no salt, try silicone lube. (Lube more often). The tailgates get dirty, hence no grease. But you can use whatever you like.
@Tucker355
@Tucker355 2 года назад
Outstanding video. One of the most useful videos I’ve found and I use RU-vid videos for almost everything. I am rebuilding my tailgate so this was particularly helpful to me! I have two questions: (1) where can I buy new latches or what’s the best way to clean up and grease my existing latches?; and, (2) can you do an in depth video on rebuilding the tailgate wiring harness? I don’t have much experience with electrical wiring and this would really help me complete my tailgate rebuild. Thank you!!
@BroncosandPartsGarage
@BroncosandPartsGarage 2 года назад
Thanks. He latch mechanism we installed can be purchased as Jeffs Bronco Graveyard. Links in description. We also sell them used. The actual latches that grab the strikers on the truck body, we soak in parts cleaner and clean with small brushes. The use fluid film as lube. I would NOT sand blast. As far as the harness, rebuilding would be the painstaking task of unwrapping the harness and laying it all out to duplicate. We simply went thru ours, found the chaffed installation and either covered it up or cut out and repaired “black or green” corroded wire. We part out lots of broncos and occasionally pull really good harnesses as well. And we sell them.

@BroncosandPartsGarage
@BroncosandPartsGarage 2 года назад
@@Tucker355 when you had the regulator out, did you try pushing the arms down and letting it snap back shut? We’ve taken out regulators that when you push the arms down, there’s so much corrosion and resistance they don’t overpower the return spring and they stay in the same position!!Also did you replace the felts that are in the vertical glass alignment tracks that mount on either side of the tailgate? I would use a very light, white lithium grease on the tracks and slides. But they need to be spotless before you apply any type of lubrication. Also look for a bad ground or fraying wires that would little the amount a voltage to the motor. Also if you ever had your top off, make sure when you put it back on, that you always install the bolts that hold the topper to the roof of your vehicle first and then work your way to the back. It will keep the top from leaking and it will line everything up properly. Perhaps you could email me a video. My email is in the video description

Ok, I got it figured out. Once you understand the window movement and how the harnesses have to move (or not move), it is apparent that both the defroster and motor harnesses have to go over the window track in order to stay out of the way and attach with the christmas tree fasteners into their locations. Keep up the good videos.

@BroncosandPartsGarage
@BroncosandPartsGarage 2 года назад
Once the torsion bar is installed, as seen in the video, and captured in the small pocket along with the two silver counter balance brackets, the portion sticking out of the tailgate is captured to the inner passenger side body by a “pigtail” shaped bracket between the hinge and cable. I can email you a picture if you email me. Once installed, as you lower your tailgate, the energy is stored in the torsion or tidying if that metal rod. You should be able to close a Tailgate with one hand.

Great video, and great series! After watching this series, I am thinking there is something wrong with my tailgate shell itself, as I now see there doesn't seem to be any adjustment in the side tracks that bolt to the sides of the tailgate. On my tailgate, the glass opens into the back of the Bronco, as in it doesn't follow the contour of the fiberglass top. I have to push out from the inside so that it goes into the grooves on the top. Perhaps the tailgate isn't aligned? Perhaps the aftermarket glass isn't contoured properly? I am wondering if starting with a fresh shell may be the ticket? Mine has the typical rust in the bottom, but is otherwise sound. The cost of the shells isn't terrible, but is the quality of the aftermarket shell worth not using an OEM shell? Etc, etc.....regardless, this video series lines it out perfectly, again, great work, and thank you!
@BroncosandPartsGarage
@BroncosandPartsGarage 2 года назад
The vertical guides the glass “rides” in can rust where they bolt onto the tailgate. So I would check all four of those bolts. You didn’t mention what year so I can’t help with glass or topper info. Jeffs Bronco Graveyard sells the shells and guts. Links in video description. I wouldn’t buy from a “non” Bronco dealer as you’ll want Bronco people selling you Bronco parts and Bronco customer support. New OEM shells are obviously long gone. Used OEM would be great but I’m in Detroit. They’re all rusted out. Good luck on your project. Don’t forget to subscribe and share this video !!

@@BroncosandPartsGarage Apologies, I should have mentioned that it is a 1985 XLT. I don't believe the top has ever been removed. The PO kept it in the garage for the past 30 years, but it wasn't a garage queen....he used it for a daily, as well as a hunting rig. When I had the glass replaced, I had "nearly" all of the guts replaced, including finding a Motorcraft motor. The fourt pieces I didn't replace were the two vertical guides, and the two sliders the bushings on the regulator slide in. Bad move on my part......damn! My Bronco is a New Mexico Bronco, so it is relatively rust free....just the tops of the rear wheelwells and the bottom of the tailgate. The rest is solid. I am not opposed to a new tailgate shell, as the cost to repair the rust, repaint, etc, etc, may actually come out to more money than the new shell. I hear the CAPA certification helps, but I think that's just against corrosion, not the balance of the construction. Thank you for the heads up on the vertical guides! I will look at those right away.....well, when the sun comes back up!

It appears the new tailgate from JBG does not appear to accept the exterior silver pannel. I want to keep the origional look of my 1996 XLT so I'd like to keep it on if at all possible. Any suggestions?

It can be done, Option 1. Use a piece of cardboard and press it onto your silver panel allowing the studs to pierce the cardboard. Then you want to trace out the lock hole. you’ll use the cardboard as a template on your new tailgate. And you’ll use the lock hole to align your template perfectly. Option 2- it’s not the easiest task to perform, it would involve putting a grease marker on all of the studs coming out of your silver panel. And then placing it on the TG and using that as a template to drill your holes. The bonus to this, would be if you were off slightly, the holes will be covered if you need to make them larger or oval them out slightly. The lock hole is your biggest challenge. Or simply take your Bronco to a detailing shop and have a vinyl image of the tailgate panel installed on your tailgate. Thanks for the question and please remember to subscribe and like the content.

There are a variety of companies that make an adhesive that has conductive properties. Just search online or Amazon.

@@BroncosandPartsGarage Thanks for the quick reply. I'll check that out. Awesome video's as well! Been going through the motions on my 91 XLT, rebuilt the transmission and the 351, stainless exhaust, steering box and column, and now going to tighten up the little things then do the suspension.

After installing a new aftermarket tailgate i can't get the gaps to match. It still needs to come up 1/8 on the passenger side but the gap on the top drivers' side is almost closed. Being 76 years old isn't helping any.

Sorry your having trouble. The strikers have some adjustability.

I just realized yesterday that part of my problem might be that the window is not even. The right side is slightly higher than the left. Any suggestions on how I fix that?

That usually caused by the small white sliders being stuck in their tracks. And not pivoting or being corroded. It’s an easy fix once you get it taken apart.

Any idea how to replace the tailgate aluminum trim that has the Ford logo? It looks like the new parts come without any holes. Also, it's hard to find it.

The seals can be done. Just a bit harder to do. For the metal panel You’ll need to make a paper or cardboard template and measure twice. Drill once!!! Or have a tint shop just make one out of vinyl wrap. We sell the metal panels. Used.
