Sounds like it's good, Steve! Best to prove it out, because its a given that some dolt will park his hefty backside on the tail gate at some point in time, even if he should be thumped for doing it! A guy around here worked on his Falcon Ranchero for a loooong time, and finally pulled in a bunch of favors and got the new color shot. One of the first times out the gate was down, and he parked his own backside on it to chat, not considering that the new cable supports he'd installed had never been stretched and adjusted. He's got a pair of parallel dents about a foot apart on his gate now, perfect images of the bumper brackets.... At least he has no one to blame but himself....
