Looking for the parts to swap a truck gate onto a K5. On the LMC diagram, it's #15 left and right, then #17 left and right, all 2nd design. Would be nice to have the bolts with them as well.

Been cleaning up the garage all day and these were one of the things I found.

Not sure what year they are but the OD of the round one is 1.56"
Would these work for ya?
 
I'm kind of lost. The listings show '73-'76 and '76-'91 links and '73-'80 and '81-'91 hinges. From pictures, those hinges are 1st design and links are 2nd. Would they have come off a '76-'80 truck then?

EDIT: Looks like the answer is here: https://ck5.com/forums/threads/looking-for-tailgate-hinges.325813/#post-3639061. That is the 70's style hinge, as I suspected. Those won't help me, but I think the links will. What do you want?

I have a few tailgates in storage...the oldest is probably a 87. I’ll see if these fit or not & let you know.

If they work $10 plus the ride. Questing they should be cheap to ship.
 
A while back, I disassembled an '86 tailgate due to gooseneck impact. I have all the parts in a box, and will ship your way for $30

OK, PM me with a price once you find them. Also interested in the rubber bumpers and the bolts, if you have them.
 
My parts are for the earlier style...at least they don't match the 87 tailgate that I have.
Jimbo sounds like he has the set up you're looking for.

I can get a shipping quote but it would be this weekend.
 
Big thanks, Jimbo*. Box had even more stuff in it than I asked for. All looks like the stuff I need. :waytogo:
