How do I Adjust the Tailgate on a 1991 Ford F 150

The tailgate on your 1991 Ford F-150 is used to keep loaded items secure in the back of the truck bed. If you are having problems with your F-150s tailgate, you probably need to adjust the alignment. This can be done with a couple of tools that you probably have around the house. You dont have to pay for a body shop to adjust the alignment. You can do it yourself.

Instructions

1

Lower the tailgate so the gate flat. Use your fingers to detach the retaining cables from the pins on the side of the tailgate. Use a wrench to remove the bolt on the lower right hinge of the tailgate.

2

Use a wrench to remove the right hinge pin from the tailgate and then remove the left hinge pin. Pull the tailgate off of the truck.

3

Look for the latch strikers on the sides of the tailgate. These connect the tailgate to the truck bed sides. Clean any dirt or debris from the strikers. Use a Torex screwdriver to loosen or tighten the strikers to line them up properly.

4

Reassemble the tailgate in reverse order to put back on your F-150.
