Description

Reconnect your tailgate release handle to its latch mechanism with the Dorman - OE Solutions Tailgate Latch Rod 924-301, a tailgate release latch linkage rod built to drop in like the original on the listed applications. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1988-1999 Chevrolet C1500, 1988-1999 Chevrolet K1500 and 1988-2000 Chevrolet C2500. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list. The catalog lists this rod for both the left and right positions.
