Wisconsin Tailgate Tie Down Bracket, Clears Tailgate Assist Strut

[Lane]

--> $20 for one bracket, $35 for two. Add $5 flat shipping for whatever you buy (see my signature at the bottom of this message for the other things I make).

Like many here, I added a tailgate strut and then the tailgate won't close with the stock tiedown bracket in place. So I made one out of scrap metal I had in a bin and posted it in my build thread here, and others asked if I'd be interested in making a few more. I have a few of these available.

The steel is thicker than it needs to be, 1/8". Cut, bent, drilled & chamfered, corners radiused, welded, sanded, and powdercoated in either of two finishes for $20 each. Add $5 for a flat shipping cost and that covers anything else that you may want to purchase at the same time as well (see my signature for the other items I make & offer).

Because I make these one at a time by hand, my welding may not look as perfect as one that comes out of a factory in China. But it is well-built and solid and it works like it should, and of course, it's made in the USA.

PayPal is strongly preferred, but if you don't have PayPal and need me to list one for purchase on eBay, I can do that as well. If you have an interest, please send me a private message (don't post to this thread). The amount is limited. Be aware that I'm not a fabricator. I make things because I enjoy making things. And because some accessories just cost too much, and they shouldn't.



My thanks go to @Dean S (his thread here) who came up with this outstanding minimalist design and shared it with us.

Sorry, I can accept PayPal only at this time. If you have an interest, please send me a private message (don't post to this thread) with how many you'd like. The amount is limited.

Hi Lane - I would love to get one.... if you send me the Payapl address, I'll send the payment.

Thanks for the solution!

Yes, some still available! Please send a private message if you'd like one (if a person isn't familiar - click my profile pic, then "start conversation").

Now available - a choice between powder coat finishes. Satin is closer to the finish of the other factory bracket, and wrinkle looks a bit more like a bedliner texture.

And if you want to purchase two brackets so they match each other perfectly, I'll include a second bracket for an additional $15 (savings of $5). So a pair would be $40 shipped.

I'll take one!

I would like a satin black one if you still have more. Thanks

Just wanted to give Lane a shoutout.

I ordered two of the wrinkle finish tie downs last Wednesday and they were in my mailbox Friday.

They look great and if I can get 15 minutes of free time, I'll drop them on.

Nice job and great service.
Thanks

Thanks Steven! Just so it's known that it's a good fit with your drop-in bed liner - what brand of bed liner is that? Thanks.
