    Hello! I have been a Honda driver my whole life and recently my business has been doing well (I am a plaster & cement contractor) and I needed a reliable truck, so obviously I bought a new to me 2005 Tundra 4x4 Double cab.

    I am in the process of doing some small repairs on the body and tail gate and am wondering what the forum thinks about after market parts and if so what recommendations are out there as far as where to purchase. I am going to need to replace the left and right lock assembly and bars and stay assembly cables on either side of the tail gate. Hopefully not the handle but possibly the lock cylinder.

    Any and all info is much appreciated.

    Already a devoted Toyota owner.

    Eli

    Welcome Eli.
    I have a $100 aftermarket replacement tailgate on my Tacoma. It looked great, but as soon as someone sat on the open tailgate the gate bent & revealed all the construction short cuts that begat the low price. I would encourage you to try finding Factory parts through a local junkyard/recycler or online parts reseller. Also look on this site at the classifieds, always someone parting out a truck that can help you out. If you find a used good tailgate in the wrong color - it would be really simple to get a 'wrap' for it with your company name/logo on it that would solve the color & advertising issues in one deductible swoop. Good luck!
