[More Info]
1973-1980 Chevy & GMC Truck Upper Tailgate Bumpers are direct-fit rubber cushions designed to restore proper tailgate alignment, reduce rattles and prevent metal-to-metal contact. They replace worn or missing upper tailgate stops to improve tailgate fit, protect paint and sheetmetal, and deliver long-lasting resilience against compression and weathering. Durable and easy to install, these bumpers are ideal for restoration projects or routine maintenance on classic full-size trucks.
Features:
  • Fits 1973-1980 Chevrolet & GMC full-size pickup trucks (C/K series).
  • Made from durable, weather- and oil-resistant molded rubber for long service life.
  • Cushions the tailgate to reduce vibration, noise and metal-to-metal wear.
  • Simple push-in replacement design for quick restoration of tailgate fit.
  • Restoration-friendly: restores original gap and prevents paint damage.
  • Sold as replacement upper tailgate bumpers (typically a pair depending on application).
Installation / Application:
  • Difficulty: 1/5
  • Estimated time: 10-20 minutes
Suggested Tools:
  • Flathead screwdriver or trim removal tool
  • Needle-nose pliers
  • Rubbing alcohol or mild cleaner
  • Silicone spray or soapy water (optional for easier insertion)
  • Clean rag
Instructions:
  1. Open the tailgate and locate the existing upper bumper positions on the tailgate flange or bed edge.
  2. Remove old bumpers by prying gently with a flathead screwdriver or pulling with needle-nose pliers. Cut away any damaged rubber if necessary.
  3. Clean the mounting holes and surrounding area with rubbing alcohol or mild cleaner to remove dirt, grease and debris; dry with a rag.
  4. If desired, apply a light coat of silicone spray or soapy water to the new bumper stem to ease insertion.
  5. Align the bumper stem with the mounting hole and press firmly until the bumper seats flush. Use pliers with a rag for extra leverage if needed—avoid pinching the rubber surface.
  6. Repeat for the other bumper(s), close the tailgate and check for proper clearance and even contact. Adjust placement if needed.
