Tailgate Post - RH - 73-87 Chevy GMC C/K Fleetside Pickup; 73-91 Blazer Jimmy

Restore the structure and style of your 1973-1987 Chevy & GMC C/K Fleetside pickup or 1973-1991 Blazer/Jimmy with AMD’s Tailgate Post – RH (Passenger Side). This premium OE-style sheet-metal restoration part renews the critical pillar that carries the tailgate’s weight on every Squarebody C10, C20, C30, K10, K20 and K30 truck, sealing out corrosion while delivering factory-correct gaps and latch action.

Precision-stamped from heavy-gauge steel, the RH post duplicates original GM geometry—including hinge pockets and brace ribs—for an effortless weld-in fit. A durable EDP coating shields both inner and outer surfaces against rust, so the panel arrives ready for primer or paint. AMD’s exact bolt-hole placement and laser-cut edges align perfectly with OE hardware, eliminating the need for shims or slotting.

A compromised passenger-side tailgate post can let the tailgate sag, rattle or even pop open on rough roads. Replacing it with AMD’s robust pillar restores hinge support, protects your fresh paint from chips, and prevents future bed-side cracking. Whether you’re tackling a frame-off show build or a quick rust repair, this classic truck upgrade slots in seamlessly with adjacent panels and delivers confidence every time you drop the gate.
