I did a post just a little bit ago about my reinstalled tailgate not laying down all the way. One top hinge takes all the load and the other is loose. Took them both off and one is a little longer then the other. Is this right? I don't remember one being loose when I took it apart. I aslo tried adjusting the hinges and tailgate but just cant seem to get them both tight with the gate down.
