19split.jpg Most Bronco owners have had to deal with this at some point due to the swingaway spare.  The only lasting repair I've ever heard of is replacing the tailgate skin, which is prohibitively expensive for a truck like mine.  So I've decided to try something different...

I've come up with 3 fixes that should stop this tear, allowing the gap to be permanently filled & painted.  One only applies to t/gs that have already torn, like this one, and mine.  The others apply to all t/gs, even if they have no visible tear yet.
