Always something.
Noticed at the weekend that the tailgate retaining cables were not quite as they should be.
The drivers side was held captive by a Nyloc nut, and the passenger side had its original equipment fitted, so could release the slotted cable end.
As fitted.
Whats missing.
Conversely, the drivers side unit had been replaced by this part.
Not ideal.
So with zero chance of finding one here in the UK, I decided that slightly rounding off the corners of the bodged nut would be as good as it gets for now.
Bench grinder to the rescue.
Back on the truck.
