Tailgate hinges

[Stealth69]

My 69 did not have a tailgate and I just bought a straight rust free gate (In Nevada ) and I was wondering what years I could get hinges and supports off of.

Cargo Box, Styleside - Styleside boxes were available in 6-foot and 8-foot lengths. The rear side extensions on the '70-'72 boxes were modified to incorporate running lights which the '67-'69 boxes don't have. All boxes were available with a tool stowage compartment with hinged door in front of the right-rear wheelwell. '67-'69 trucks equipped with the 25-gallon auxiliary fuel tank had a filler tube hole above the beltline, whereas similarly-equipped '70-'72 trucks had the filler tube hole below the beltline. All styleside tailgates are identical and will interchange. '73-'79 tailgates will physically bolt on and be functional, but the body lines do not match up and it just looks odd.

That being said....I'd say you can use a set off any....I would stick between 67-72 and you should be able to post in the "wanted" section or check with the normal vendors

The hinges and supports will interchange from 64 to 79. The lines on the tailgates are not the same but the hardware is. I'm using a set off a 78 on mine.
