🔧 High-Quality Rear Tailgate Handle for Ford F-150, F-250, F-350 SD - Easy Replacement FO1915115 (1997-2007) Review

I accidentally broke mine off one day thinking it would be a pain to replace but it wasn't that difficult and seems durable and expensive.

Changed order. It works. Seems to be a bit weaker than the original but the original is broken but this one isn't! Would buy again.

I've replaced the grip and it's in place now, but I'll probably have to replace it again at some point as there are 3 of the 4 tabs that help keep it in place , were broken when i received it.

When replacing, I was not too lazy to lubricate with oil all the friction points from the handle to the locking pins. The back door now opens with a slight jerk. The grip looks the same as the OEM except it's shiny and new.

I have a 1998 Ford F150. I had to buy it because my old door lock had a crack. The door mechanism clips that hold the bars in place broke and I pulled really hard in my lap thinking I was just not pulling enough but it broke. After removing the two nuts holding it in place, all you have to do is pull on the metal bracket, which will release the locking mechanism. Installation is carried out in reverse order and takes about 30 seconds. Now my door and the lock on the back door are like new.

Great product as it fitted my 02 F150 Lariat truck perfectly. Installation took less than 10 minutes! I removed the rear door inner panel to gain access to the hatch, unscrewed the old handle, removed my lock in "less than 10 seconds", installed it into the new handle, reinstalled it and it fitted perfectly into the old recessed grip cast into the rear doors! I of course had a Dewalt cordless drill and bits for removing the tailgate inner trim :) which made the installation a lot quicker…
