Keep your pickup's tailgate held steady when it's lowered with the Dorman tailgate support cable, part number 38548 from the Dorman HELP line. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1998-2022 Nissan Frontier, designed to match the original cables' fit and function and to help keep the tailgate stable when open.

• Direct replacement: Fits the listed applications and helps preserve tailgate stability.
• Durable construction: Made of quality materials and engineered to stabilize the tailgate over the long haul.
• Saves money: Offers quality at a competitive price, and a sound cable helps protect the tailgate from damage.
• Quality assured: Has undergone virtual testing for fit, function and durability over time.

Dorman catalogs this part as a 16-3/4 tailgate cable. The support cable links the tailgate to the truck bed and holds the gate at its open position, which limits how far it can drop when lowered. Signs a cable may need replacing include fraying, kinks, a broken strand, or a tailgate that sags below level or hangs unevenly when opened. If a worn or broken cable is the cause, this replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete application details.
