Re: Tailgate issues with new trunnions installed
The trunnions should be mounted inside that side channel (just like your passenger side trunnion) and not be exposed like your driver side one. I also spent a lot of time hand fitting the tailgate joint with a die grinder and drum sander so that they fit and rotate smoothly around the trunnions (my aftermarket tailgate needed a lot of work).
