This original GM tailgate hardware set represents an increasingly difficult-to-find restoration component for collectors, restorers, and vintage truck enthusiasts seeking authentic factory parts.

The Chevrolet Fleetside pickup trucks produced between 1958 and 1966 remain among the most recognizable and desirable classic trucks ever built. Known for their smooth-sided cargo beds, dependable performance, and timeless styling, these trucks continue to be popular restoration projects and collector vehicles. Maintaining original hardware and factory-correct details is an important part of preserving the authenticity and value of these classic Chevrolet pickups.

The tailgate assembly is one of the most frequently used components on any pickup truck. As a result, latch hardware and pivot brackets often experience significant wear over decades of service. Exposure to weather, corrosion, repeated use, cargo loading, and accidental damage can cause original brackets to become bent, worn, broken, or missing. Genuine NOS replacement components provide the ideal solution for restoring proper tailgate function and appearance.

This matching pair of tailgate latch pivot brackets was manufactured by General Motors and remained unused in inventory. Unlike reproduction parts, NOS components offer the original fit, finish, dimensions, and quality intended by Chevrolet engineers. For enthusiasts seeking factory-correct restorations, original GM hardware remains the preferred choice whenever available.

Whether restoring a working pickup, show truck, survivor vehicle, or investment-grade collector truck, these original pivot brackets help ensure proper operation of the tailgate latch system while maintaining authenticity.
