🚪 Dorman 45679 Tailgate Stop Bumper: Perfect Fit for Chevrolet / GMC Models Review

I've looked for this before. I couldn't find her. I had none on one side and the back door closed with a metallic clang. After replacing the stoppers, the tailgate now has the factory new sound and feel.

It took 30 seconds to install and my tailgate fits perfectly. I have a 2000 Silverado and would like to find them before I replace the tailgate mounting bolts. I really couldn't see where they were badly worn, but they no longer had the plastic bushing. Replacing the locking bolt did not help, the tailgate rattled and did not close tightly. So if you're thinking of replacing the shoulder bolt, try these first bumpers first. I would like.

This is the best thing I've bought for my beautiful used Sierra. When I bought the truck there was styrofoam tape (a hardware store thing) between the tailgate and the platform to try to keep it steady. But nothing compares to what they do. It's like a factory. No more noise when hitting potholes on rough roads. Just remember that GM design isn't good for them if you use your truck for work. You can easily slip when you pull tools, chains or something else out of bed.

Perfect for 08 Sierra. Should be the same from 07 1/2 to 13. Another person said he would cut back to his 08, didn't see a need. I just took my old one off (I only had one so I bought it) and put the new ones on the bracket. I closed the back door very well, with a good push. Then I pushed the back door and lifted the handle to open it and I had no problem. The price is a bit high for two tiny rubber moldings but still the cheapest I could find.

Used on an 04 Silverado 2500HD and they fit great although they look different than the worn tailgate bumpers that came with our truck. The tailgate closes snugly with no rattling or movement of any kind. They're quite expensive for a few pieces of rubber, but appear to be made of quality materials. Will be a 5 star product if proven to last at least a few years, will update rating as its performance changes.
