i was lookin for some input on shaving my tailgate or not. i can do everything myself so it wouldnt hardly cost anything. ive just never owed a truck with it done but ive done them. is it a pain in the *** when your loading stuff or about the same?

 

i guess its the same i wanted to do that to my truck but never got a chance post a pic of the back of ur truck...

 

Just have to watch out for the handle since it will stick up slightly. Or modify a obs flush handle to work. If the trucks lifted it might be a pain since you would have to reach in the bed of the truck to open it.

 

its not lifted and probably never will be. i want to keep my bumper so i wasnt sure how it would look. i might go ahead and do it this coming weekend and after a while if i dont like it im sure somebody would trade. i seen that thread on the obs handles but the guy was talking about sir michaels not wanting to make another kit or something. im sure i could make one myself if i get an obs handle.

 

mine is shaved.... no trouble getting things in and out of the truck... just use the handle flip kit...

 

everythings better shaved..

 

do you have a bumper or roll pan?

 

hahaha, shave it!

 

I have mine shaved with a bumper and I like it.. I'll post up a pic here in a sec.. its a stepside though if that makes any difference.

 

sorry for the odd angled pic... was showing a friend my clearance after I dropped the rear down.
