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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrecision-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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExact-fit RH Tailgate Post for 1973-87 C\/K Fleetside pickups \u0026amp; 1973-91 Blazer\/Jimmy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCovers C10, C20, C30, K10, K20, K30 Squarebody models (2WD \u0026amp; 4WD)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavy-gauge stamped steel recreates OE thickness and internal bracing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFull EDP coating inside and out for maximum corrosion resistance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLaser-cut mount holes match factory hinge and latch hardware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntegrates with original or AMD bed sides and tailgates\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIdeal for rust repair, collision damage or full restorations\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBacked by AutoMetalDirect.com quality assurance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDon’t let a weakened pillar compromise your tailgate’s strength or your truck’s looks.
