Review on πŸ”‘ T1A Exterior Rear Tailgate Door Handle Replacement for 1993-2003 Ford Ranger, Compatible with 1987-1998 Ford F150, F-250, and Mazda Pickup Trucks, Black Color, Part Number F87Z-9943400-AAF by Farhad Cantu

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good solid replacement even for a 2011 truck

Will fit a 2011 Ranger. It's smaller but I wanted metal as the plastic will bend even when new. Unless you're a Super Ranger fan (I am) you won't notice the size difference. It fits perfectly into the lines of the tailgate. It's only 2/3 the size of the original. I even had plans to glue the plastic face of the broken handle to the metal assembly if that would look too weird. But it's normal. Easy installation and positive experience. There are no problems installing and using it. Especially when you consider that the product was designed and manufactured for a much older model year. That's the beauty of the Ford Ranger (IMO), the last change was in 2002. There weren't any major changes back then either. Hell, my 2011 bed still has a relief in the corner of the floor for the secondary gas inflation hose. Last offered in 1988. In any case. The only reason this isn't a five star rating is because the first part I cut off the bolt before it was tightened. Had a hot swap a few months later and no issues here and I work from my truck (use the tailgate handle a lot). Yes, I would buy more tomorrow, but factory damage doesn't give 5 stars.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • There are new competitors
