Tailgate question
- Thread starter 87k5350

I have not checked but i would be inclined to say there will be. The doors have them so i don't see why the tailgate wouldn't as well. Afterall some water will get past the window seal and it needs to be able to drain somehow.

Thats kinda what I think but mine was so ate up it was hard to tell, I think I will now make some . Thanks
There aren't necessarily weep holes per say, but the bottom of the tailgate is not sealed by any stretch.
I just picked this tailgate up off of an '86 for $60:
The holes towards the outside are where the torsion springs go through. Then the wider holes are where the hinges mount in. Neither of these two locations are sealed when the tailgate is assembled.
