sometimes required for pickup box loading. To remove
the tailgate unlatch the tailgate and remove the support
cables by releasing the lock tang from the pivot, then
rotate and pull away from the box. Once the cables are
free, move to the right side of the tailgate hinge bracket.
Raise the right side of the tailgate until the right side
pivot clears the hanger bracket. Slide the entire tailgate to
the right to free the left side pivot. Remove the tailgate
from the vehicle entirely. Do not carry the tailgate loose in
the truck pickup box.
