Description

Replace a cracked, broken or loose outside handle with the Dorman - HELP exterior Toyota Tundra tailgate handle, part number 81213. It is a direct replacement for the 2007-2013 Toyota Tundra. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full application details.

This is the handle on the outside of the tailgate that you pull to work the latch release so the gate can be lowered. Over time a handle can crack, break or work loose from daily use and weather. If a worn or broken handle is why your tailgate won't open, this Dorman tailgate handle replaces it.

Direct replacement: designed to install and work like the original Tundra tailgate handle on the specified vehicles.
Durable construction: made from quality materials and intended for a long service life.
Saves money: brings original-equipment quality at a competitive price.
Quality assured: tested for proper fit and durability.

Before you order, find the cause. A faulty latch or linkage can also stop a tailgate from opening.
