yes, i fully understand the concept of the tailgate too thanks.

schakal obviously thought you were on about the wheels so i think its fair to say your original desription of the problem was lacking somewhat wouldnt you say?

Anyway, have you inspected the tailgate hinges themselves? Look at the Project Y progress report and you will see that they can be troublesome little buggers...

21 inches? how does it close? I can't if its 2 inches out.

if its that far out then the casrs been stoved up the arse big style.

The holes for the =hnges will allow maybe an inch of adjustment.
