For Mounting on Our Replacement Tailgate: It is required to carefully drill 12 mounting holes through the tailgate and mounting tabs on the back of this item. It would be best to align this panel on the tailgate, mark and drill the holes in the tailgate first, according to the aluminum mounting tabs on this panel. Then realign this panel on the tailgate to mark the aluminum mounting tabs on this panel for drilling. After carefully drilling the holes through the aluminum mounting tabs, realign the panel to the tailgate and use the included rivets to mount to the tailgate. (Tools Not Included)About Carpenter Industries, Inc
As a family owned and operated company, Dennis Carpenter has been making Ford restoration parts for over 50 years. As a kid, Daniel Carpenter, Dennis’s son, was at his dad’s side when Dennis hand poured the first plastic dash knobs for a 1940 Ford convertible in an unfinished room in their home. The business was birthed, and soon thereafter, Dennis purchased his first injection molding machine for making large runs of higher quality knobs.
As the business grew, Dennis Carpenter Ford Restorations began manufacturing and selling rubber seals, rubber bumpers, die cast chrome parts and metal stamped parts. In 1998 Ford granted them the honor to use the original Ford factory tooling for many parts that they now manufacture. Today they have over 160 employees at their facility making and selling quality Ford parts. They now have 12 plastic injection molding machines, a rubber extruding operation, 54 rubber molding machines, 48 metal stamping presses, 2 zinc die casting machines, 3 roller mills and many other speciality machines for making quality parts in America.
