Thanks Dean! Not much to post but I had a heck of a time figuring out how to reassemble the handle on the tailgate. Couldn't find much info searching, so thought I'd post a pointer here. Seems the only way this will go back together is to first attach the rods to the latches and install the latches. The ends of both rods needs to point up where they attach to the handle. In order to get the rods attached to the handle, you need the clips (got mine from LMC), and best I can tell you have to install them with the handle outside its hole as shown in the photo. Then shove the handle up into the hole and bolt back in. The hinge on the handle sticks up enough that it is difficult to get back into the tailgate. I don't think I could have done this without scratching up a lot of paint, so I think its best to reassemble before paint.

On a side note, adjusting the tailgate is not child's play. Must have had it on and off 25 times tweaking the pivot mounts.
