5th Wheel Tailgate

Did a quick search and sure didn't find much of anything.

For those of you that have replaced their stock tailgate with a 5th Wheel Tailgate, What are your thoughts? What features to look for? Which ones to stay away from?

I saw a Stromburg Carlson 4000 series that I thought might save some rear axle weight, as it is plastic. But, being plastic also makes me a little hesitant.

Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback, from a first hand experienced user!!

It's in my cart on Amazon, just need to check with the DW if she wants to add anything to take advantage of the free shipping.

Thanks again Bluewater.

I was given one when I bought my hitch....I am not fussy on it as I have a cover for my bed when not towing. If anyone in Ontario Canada wants one, give me a PM...it will be cheap
