S10 Tailgate Latches Part 3
The upper mounts for the cables are used as stock from the S10. After supporting the tailgate in a horizontal position, I pulled the cables taut to determine the location for these mounts, and then just drilled a through hole. The sheet metal in this area is double thickness, and the nut on the backside can be accessed through the taillight opening (long, slim fingers are helpful for this).
However, I’ve since realized that I can’t get the tailgate on or off with these mounts in place, so I may go back and weld in a nut or maybe install a rivet nut for ease of service.
