Fitz24 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Need to replace passenger side tailgate latch but can't seem to find a source to purchase from. Are they interchangeable with anything else? 1980 model. Also need new switch setup for rear window key operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramttocs Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Can't help with the interchangeable part but are you looking for new or used(jy)? Have a photo of the switch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz24 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 Can't help with the interchangeable part but are you looking for new or used(jy)? Have a photo of the switch? New or used as long as the they work. I work out of town so I can't get pictures until I'm back home for a visit. Thanks for responding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I may run to the jy and there are 3 Bullnose Broncos there and I know at least one has a tailgate. I've never actually paid attention to the latch or switch or anything Bronco specific though so would just want to ensure I am grabbing the right thing. What timezone are you in?

Live in SE Texas for work. Bronco is at our home on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. My current passenger side tailgate latch won't stay in the open position so we can't completely close the tailgate.

I wasn't able to make it on Saturday but I asked about the timezone in case I am able to make it again before you find what you need and we can text/send photos as needed while in the jy. I am also in CST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce moose4x4 Posted May 21, 2022 Share Posted May 21, 2022 Please let me know if you get to the JY and find any latches. Thank you. Not sure if you do Facebook? But Chris your Neighbor buys rusted out broncos and parts them out. He has a lot of parts for sale , even some good You-tube videos of repairing tailgates and other items.
