Re: Tailgate Cable Inspection and Replacement
Just digging up an old thread,
I got my letter last week on my 2002 S10 crew that was not included back in 2007. Now that it has been fixed for 5 years I will tell the "rest of the story" on what I did. I have a 2001 that is the same color. I had replace the cables on it before the special policy ever came out. When I was denied coverage on the '02 because the VIN didn't match their list, I waited a few weeks then swapped tailgates. With the '02 tailgate on the '01 truck, I got it fixed. Came home and swapped them back.

Re: Tailgate Cable Inspection and Replacement
Bad thing for me is... The cables are the least of my worries. My tailgate is damaged, partially due to cable and latch issues. AND, I smashed up the front of my bed with my dads 150 gallon water tank, even pushed in the cab slightly . Guess the good news is, this puts a jump start on a need for a restoration project ,
