Description

If a cracked, loose or broken handle is making it hard to drop the gate on your pickup, the Dorman - HELP 90696 exterior 1998-2011 Ford Ranger tailgate handle is designed to take its place. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2011 Ford Ranger and is built to fit and work like the original handle.

The exterior tailgate handle is the outside lever you pull to open the gate. It works the tailgate latch mechanism so the gate can release and lower. This Dorman tailgate handle offers:

Direct replacement: designed to match the original handle's fit and function on the listed applications.
Durable construction: made of quality materials intended for a long service life.
Saves money: offers original-equipment quality at a competitive price.
Quality assured: tested to confirm proper fit and durability.

A handle that is cracked, snapped or loose, or one that moves without releasing the gate, may need replacing. The latch and linkage can cause similar symptoms, so check them as part of your diagnosis. If the handle itself has failed, this part replaces it. For a 1998-2011 Ford Ranger tailgate handle replacement, follow the vehicle service information for removal and installation. The "Vehicles it fits" section has the complete fitment details.
