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!
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.

The part fit perfectly and was easy to install. Keep making parts I need to get another 30 yrs out of this truck
Thanks
These went in pretty dang easy on my crew cab. Install took me a day, and most of that was just the wiring. The brackets fit perfect and they make for a sturdy step. My only hang up were the switches, after putting some noalox on the sheet metal screws they worked great.
Brake light bushing kit solved the problem. Kit wasn't available from a dealer thankfully I could get it here.
They are nicely designed and work as intended, and barely noticeable which was what I wanted, and that's why I'm not dropping a star. That said, I should also mention that $80 for a set of 4 small die cut plastic pieces is a bit too much.
