Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • Toyota Tacoma regular cab, Xtracab and Double Cab pickup applications (1995-2004; verify bed and hardware)
  • Toyota Tacoma 2WD and 4WD applications using 65700-04030

Product Overview

A bent, rusted, stolen, or collision-damaged tailgate can keep the bed from closing cleanly and make the truck look unfinished. This replacement shell gives a repair shop or owner a solid starting point when the original gate is beyond straightening.

The listing is for the tailgate panel shown, not an automatic promise that handles, latches, rods, cables, hinges, trim, badges, or paint are included. Compare the stamping, hinge points, latch openings, body style, and production information before transferring hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this a complete ready-to-bolt-on tailgate? A: Do not assume that. Treat it as the panel shown and plan to transfer or replace the required hardware.

Q: Does it arrive painted to match my truck? A: No. Body preparation, primer, color, and clear coat are normally required.

Q: Will it fit every 1995-2004 Tacoma bed? A: Verify the original stamping, hinge and latch locations, bed configuration, and 65700-04030 before ordering.

Q: Is this an original-equipment part? A: No. This is a new aftermarket product. Brand names and part numbers are used only to identify compatible applications.
