Direct-fit left or right tailgate support cable for 1988-2000 Chevrolet & GMC C/K pickup trucks. This cable secures and supports the tailgate during loading and unloading, preventing over-extension and damage while restoring reliable factory operation. Built for durability and straightforward replacement, it’s ideal for restoration projects and routine maintenance to regain proper alignment and safe tailgate function.
Features:
  • Fits 1988-2000 Chevrolet and GMC C/K pickup trucks (left or right side application).
  • OEM-style replacement restores proper tailgate support and prevents over-extension.
  • Durable steel core with protective coating resists corrosion and wear.
  • Pre-formed end terminals allow easy bolt-on installation with original hardware.
  • Sold individually for left or right side — perfect for restorations or repairs.
Installation / Application:
  • Difficulty: 2/5
  • Estimated time: 15-30 minutes
Suggested Tools:
  • 10 mm (or appropriate) socket or wrench
  • Ratchet
  • Pliers
  • Flathead screwdriver
  • Penetrating oil (if fasteners are corroded)
  • Rag
Instructions:
  1. Lower the tailgate and support it on a block or have an assistant hold it to prevent sudden drops.
  2. Locate the existing support cable fasteners on the tailgate and bed side bracket. Apply penetrating oil if bolts are corroded and allow it to soak.
  3. Remove the fasteners securing the old cable to the tailgate and the bed bracket using the socket/wrench and pliers as needed. If rivets were used previously, drill them out carefully and clean the holes.
  4. Position the new support cable so the correct end aligns with the tailgate bracket (confirm left or right side orientation). Attach and secure the cable to the tailgate bracket with the original or supplied fastener. Hand-tighten first.
  5. Attach the other end of the cable to the bed-side bracket and tighten all fasteners securely. Ensure the cable is not twisted and moves freely.
  6. Cycle the tailgate open and closed to confirm proper support and alignment. Re-check fastener torque after initial use and periodically during the first few days of operation.
