tailgate update

so toyota has sent up a master teck to look at the gap in my tailgate. I was looking to get a phone call yesterday for an update and nothing. so we will see. I have the Limited Edition 1794 any one else have the gap in the tail gate?

 

All MY22+ Tundra have the gap. Nothing new.

 

I’ve looked at mine but can’t really tell anything that bad with my nekkid eye

 

I don't see anything out of the ordinary on my 1794 Limited Edition on the tailgate. Where is your gap at?

 

All this talk of a gap, but no picture?

 

Yep, most all have a gap. Mine was so close on the right side it was rubbing the paint off the bottom right corner of the tailgate. I ended up swapping the brackets that mount to the bottom of the tailgate and it made it better, but I still have just enough room to clear opening/closing without rubbing. Aside from that, there's not really anything you can adjust to narrow the gap. As much as I like this truck, the tailgate in general is just a POS. I mean, they couldn't just make the top front part metal without putting on a shitty plastic spoiler that just rubs the paint off in areas?

 

Again, I wonder and ask WHERE is this "gap"? Right side? Bottom?

 

If you look at the tailgate, you will see a larger gap on one side between the side of the tailgate and the tail light. (Usually the driver's side has a larger gap.)

 

No one will to show their gap! Mine had it also, mine is on the driver side of the tailgate.

 

LOL... Yes, everyone is apparently too ashamed to show their gap! What do you mean yours "had" the gap? Where did that sneaky gap go? ;-)

 

I just checked mine and it is even and straight on both sides. I guess I just got lucky?

 

Mine doesn’t have a gap either.

 

LOL. My bad, it has the gap. I’ll snap a pic of it. Some have used truck bed stiffeners to alleviate the issue it seems.
