Swingaway Pad
IF THE IMAGE IS TOO SMALL, click it.

The factory paint-protector pad is self-adhesive vinyl, with 2 pushpins in most '92-up tailgates to keep it from sliding when the swingaway bounces. Since it's not available, and I don't like putting more holes in the tailgate, I'm replacing it with UHMWPE tape which should remain slick enough not to need the pushpins.
