AndBir Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Hmmm... hard to tell really but is the tailgate slam panel (in pictures 1 & 4) original? It sorta looks like an overlay. I only ask because mine is original and the panel end edges are flushed with seam sealant (which is what leaks when water ponds on the panel and allows rust to form in the underlying metal layers). If it's original there will be a row of exposed spot welds right next to and running parallel to the hatch opening seal. But the spare wheel tub (picture 2) looks good. What is picture 3 of - a lower door? Pic 3 seems to be the body ?gutter? of the upper left rear hatch without any internal rubber seal. The slam panel could be original - looks similar to mine : Quote
