| I own a 1994 chevrolet s-10 2wd regular cab pickup. the tailgate cables on my truck are either failing or have failed. i do not use my vehicle for any special purposes, just normal everyday use. through the regular opening and closing of my tailgate my right-side cable has snapped, and my left-side cable is freying and i expect to snap in the near future. if the left-side cable snaps there will be nothing keeping the tailgate from falling off. i am afraid that when it fails it will be under load and someone will be injured.*ak | |||
