The Lower Tailgate Bumpers are OE-style restoration components designed for 1967–1991 Chevy and GMC C/K Squarebody Fleetside pickup trucks, including later 1987–1991 R/V series models, as well as select Blazer and Jimmy SUVs. These rubber bumpers install at the lower tailgate contact points and serve as a critical cushion between the tailgate and the bed floor or rear body structure when the tailgate is closed.
From the factory, lower tailgate bumpers were used to control tailgate alignment, absorb impact, and prevent metal-to-metal contact during closure. Over time, original bumpers often harden, crack, or go missing entirely due to age, exposure, and repeated use. When this happens, tailgates can sit unevenly, rattle, or cause premature wear to surrounding sheet metal and paint. Replacing these bumpers helps restore the proper closing height and factory-style tailgate fit.
Manufactured to OE-style dimensions, these lower tailgate bumpers match the original size, shape, and rubber density used on Squarebody trucks and SUVs. Their design allows the tailgate to close firmly while maintaining the correct spacing at the lower edge, contributing to a cleaner rear appearance and improved panel alignment. These details are especially important on Fleetside beds where tailgate fit and finish are highly visible.
This set includes two bumpers, providing coverage for both lower mounting points. The bumpers are correct for a wide range of Squarebody applications, including classic C/K pickups, later R/V series trucks, and Blazer and Jimmy models without removable hardtops where applicable. They are ideal for restorers addressing worn tailgate components as part of a bed restoration, rear-end refresh, or overall classic truck restoration project.
Offered as X-Parts by Auto Metal Direct, these lower tailgate bumpers are third-party OE-style replacement components selected to meet AMD’s standards for fit and application accuracy. X-Parts provide a dependable solution when AMD all-new tooling components are not required for the application.
