Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks!
In this video, we're going to be working on our 2001 Ford Ranger. We're going to be replacing the plastic tailgate hinge bushings. This procedure is basically the same for 1990 to 2012 Ranger. If you enjoy this repair, we've got many more videos for Ranger, as well as other vehicles. Please click subscribe. Also, check out 1AAuto.com.
Here are the items you'll need for this repair: flat blade screwdriver, T50 socket, ratchet, Phillips screwdriver, penetrating oil, and grease.
Open up your tailgate. To remove it, first you'll want to undo the tailgate cables. You can use your fingers, pull out on the tab, lift up the tailgate a little bit. Lift up the cable and off. Then for the other one, you can pry under that tab with a screwdriver and pull the tab out. Pull the cable off.
With the cables off, lift up your tailgate. Lift it off the right side first, and then slide it off the left side. Remove the tailgate.
You'll want to check the conditions of your bushings and if they're broken or missing. Take this one out, usually by a screwdriver. Pry from the back side.
Once you have the old one out, add a little bit of grease to the new one. Then pop the new one from 1AAuto right in. Around the other side, again, check this out. Pull your old one out. There's a little spacer here. Take that off. Again, little bit of grease in there on the spacer.
Before we reinstall, put some grease right on this hinge. Make sure you lift your tailgate cables up as you replace the tailgate. Slide the left side on first.
Rehook the tailgate cables.
Before you close it up, just put a little bit of grease on your latch as well as on each side. Check your mechanism. Make sure they're nice and free, and put some grease on there as well.
Thanks for tuning in. We hope this video helped you out. Next time you need parts for your car, please visit 1AAuto.com. Also check out our other helpful how-to and diagnosis videos.
