He guys I am in need of a new tailgate for my 57 3100 step side I have been looking for them nearby but I'm coming up dry for almost anything usable within 200 miles.

So that brings me to my question what is the quality of these aftermarket tailgates I am seeing from brothers,LMC and on EBAY I imagine all of these things are coming from the same Chinese factory but theres some surprising differences in prices (230-400) depending on where it is.

I don't care to cut up this bolt on part if I don't have to and I also don't want to pay to much for the same product (every dollar counts)

Thank you for any input
