Billet Aluminum Tailgate Handle for 1987–1997 Ford F-Series Trucks
Upgrade the look and feel of your Ford truck with our billet aluminum tailgate handle, engineered specifically for 1987–1997 Ford F-Series models. Precision-cut from solid billet aluminum on a CNC machine, this handle offers unmatched durability, a smooth operation, and a premium appearance that enhances your truck’s classic styling.
Unlike the factory steel handle, which often becomes pitted, corroded, and dull over time, each handle comes in a raw aluminum state — with no coatings or paint applied — giving you the freedom to customize it to your liking (polish, anodize, powder coat, or leave it raw for a clean, machined look).
This tailgate handle is available in two configurations:
With Backup Camera: Includes a camera that is mounted behind the handle. This camera offers a clear, wide-angle view of both sides of your bumper and your hitch — ideal for parking, towing, or reversing with precision.
Without Backup Camera: Works as a direct OEM replacement, providing the same fit and function as the original handle but with the superior look and quality of billet aluminum.
Features:
Fits 1987–1997 Ford F-Series (F-150, F-250, F-350)
CNC-machined from solid billet aluminum
Comes in raw aluminum finish (no coatings applied)
Optional integrated backup camera mount
Camera view covers both sides of bumper and hitch
Direct OEM replacement (camera optional)
Select your configuration from the drop-down menu — with or without backup camera

Almost like they read my mind. I was trying to figure out a solution for a backup camera for so long. This is absolutely perfect. Amazing fit and finish.
This handle was a perfect solution for a backup camera. Although I have a rearview mirror camera so the camera that comes with it wouldn't work, I was able to find a camera that is identical that worked with my mirror.
a must have!! billet handle looks OEM camera hides away so you cant see it and when its raining or weather is bad you wont get a lot of that road juice on it. this thing is awesome easy install. OBS solutions nailed it out of the park again!
I wanna thank the people at OBS solutions really helpful really respectful. I’m definitely gonna buy more stuff from you guys.
I hook and unhook multiple trailers a day. This is the only clean/hidden camera option for these old trucks! I have a single din radio that plugged right into the camera and the video quality is exactly what I needed. The billet handle feels very nice!
I had to use 2" aluminum square stock to space this down cause I have a NV271 T-case swap in my 97. I got rubber square table ends to plug up the square stock ends. It looks pretty nice.
My OBS is a 521 gasser running on 40’s,I installed the hydro boost and the upgraded Saginaw pump. Install took less than 3 hours. Wish I would have done this years ago. Kit was plug and play, everything lined up and hoses fit perfectly.
Very well made kit welds look good did not even realize it came with the 6.0 transmission cooler brackets so I was excited to see that. Only wished I had selected the powder coat option . Completely forgot to select that before checking out lol . Instructions are very clear and easy to understand. I have not installed it yet but 10/10 on build quality and Instructions
Looks great , easy install and gives that little custom look to the bronco.
Delivery had no issues and it came packaged nice with all hardware.
Thanks OBS u dudes really filled another solution!
Quick install, and the provided metal template makes this a breeze. I would just add that drilling a 15/64 sized hole is large enough to fit the bottom bolts through. I appreciate the quality parts yall provide for us OBS guys.
Looks amazing
Couldn’t wait to install my brake lines on my OBS ford with super duty axles. They went right on, no problems, and look great.
I loved how simple they made this kit to install and how it incorporates the cooler mounts too. Super clean and straightforward.
