R-Oval
DOES NOT INCLUDE TAILGATE
The OBS Solutions Aluminum Tailgate Panel fits 1987-1997 Ford F-Series Trucks ONLY. If your truck's tailgate did not come with a panel you will need to drill two holes on each end of your tailgate for this panel to work. We supply you with a template to do so. They DO NOT fit Bronco's Flareside beds or 1980-86 F-series trucks.
This product is sold as a raw grained aluminum piece. Due to the manufacturing and handling process, they may have small imperfections. These can be cleaned up and blended by gently sanding with 120gr, 220gr and red scotch-brite. If you choose to leave the panel raw, we highly recommend applying a clear-coat to preserve the finish. We also offer powder coat finished panels.
***The FORD 7 x 2 3/4" Emblem is not supplied*** You can order these from Amazon.
NOTE: Our Tailgate panel does not mount completely flush to the tailgate. Ford used special tooling and dies to mold the panel to the complicated contour and bends of the tailgate. The gaps in fitment are minimal and hidden by the taillights when the tailgate is shut. Please view and read our detailed instructions and photos prior to installation. With that being said, our panel mounts using factory fasteners and achieves secure adhesion to the tailgate through heavy duty 3M Body Panel Adhesive.

Thought I would be a good fishin buddy and hook the boat up to Clems F150. Unfortunately do to a combination of darkness, rain, and my eagerness to get on the Kokanee I rammed the tongue of the trailer into his tailgate. Rather than replace the whole thing and have to try and match colors I bought him one of these. He was tickled pink and told me I could tongue punch his rig anytime!
This is the perfect fit and perfect look to bring your truck into the 20th century
Fantastic quality. The piece was packaged very securely so the grain on the raw aluminum was perfect so scratches of any kind. Shipping was very fast as well. I used shark hide metal protectant on it to protect the finish. Ive had really good success with that on an LJ I had with raw aluminum panels on it. Even drove it in Colorado winters and it protected the finish great.
Exceeded my expectations. Thank you.
Everything lined up perfectly, install was super easy. As mentioned in the description there is a small gap on the side, but you’d never notice it. The near chrome powdercoat is a close to OEM finish without the maintenance of raw aluminum. Would definitely get it again!
Very sturdy , really like the short tucked in design.
I feel they need to add some adhesive where some of the push clips are to shallow of a hole to hold in. But quality of this is awesome
Added these (2”) to my truck along with the superduty leaf spring shackles to level my truck to match the RSK kit in the front. Leveled it out nicely. With the boomerang shackles, shackle flip kit and superduty springs it lifted the rear of the truck about 2.5inches total.
Very nice quality, fit excellent, worth waiting for them to be back in stock.
Extremely pleased of the new look set of mirrors from OBS Solutions. Cannot wait to purchase more items for my F150.
New to me 96 with the E4OD had burnt sockets which caused a hard trans shift. Bought this, swapped in, worked like a dream. Do go with the lower wattage 912 bulb.
Great Product. High quality craftsmanship and parts. Functions and looks great!
Great kit that fixes the notorious door handle weakness on OSB Fords. Easy and straight forward, beginner friendly, the kit even comes with the plastic panel rivets (which you are definitely going to break taking the inner panel off). Basic tools plus a rivet gun are all you need. It's Simple!
The bracket i needed for my 1996 EB bronco arrived pretty quick. It was very well made but for the price i expected it to be a direct fit. i had trouble getting the holes to line up and ultimately had to loosely thread in the top bolts then beat the bracket into place in order to get it to line up all the way. It went on with some physical persuasion and i expect it to hold up so really no complaints. i just wish i looked a little harder before i ordered the driver side pivot arm bracket as well. hopefully i can return that.
