CHANGING TAILLIGHT MOUNTING FASTENERS
NOTE: To allow access to taillight bulbs after Liftgate is installed, changes to taillight
mounting fasteners should be made before mounting Liftgate on pickup bed. If
taillight fasteners are accessible through the main frame mounting brackets, it
may not be necessary to change the taillight fasteners.
1. Remove 2 original taillight screws from
RH taillight lens (FIG. 11-1). These
screws are not needed after the tail-
light mounting is changed.
2. Drill a 9/64" hole through RH taillight
lens and internal sheet metal (FIG. 11-1).
Then, carefully drill a 3/16" hole through
taillight lens to create clearance for the
screw threads (FIG. 11-1).
NOTE: If liftgate is C2-15 model (1500
lb capacity), wait until liftgate
is mounted on pickup bed be-
fore reinstalling taillights.
3. Apply clear automotive silicone seal-
ant (not supplied) to the 3/16" hole in
the taillight lens, and on the threaded
portion of the self-tapping screw (FIG.
11-1).
4. Insert a self-tapping screw (Kit item)
into 9/64" hole to secure the taillight
lenses in place (FIG 11-1). Do not over-
tighten screw.
5. Repeat steps 1 through 4 for LH tail-
light lens.
