Adding Tailgate Handle to RST

mbsfgts · August 21, 2020

Anyone know if this will fit on 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 HD, also couldn’t find that part.

Don't know if it will fit. But if you find out it will, I just took mine off and I'm happy to sell it.

Still have it? Have any pictures? What are you asking for it?

When folded does it fold down or forward? I have an Undercover UltraFlex hard cover and trying to determine if it will fit.

It folds straight down. Step dad just got a new Sierra SLT and loves it. Calls it his old mans step handle!! LOL. I found it very useful to use. I am thinking of adding this to my High Country

Thought I would share a picture of the GMC Tailgate Handle on my RST. I ordered it from the GMC Dealer and installed it in 5 minutes. It works great and very useful to this old man.

Yes, that would be a great option, but my bedrails are using some of the mounting holes that this GMC product appears to use, so I can't use it unfortunately.

I added this to my Trail Boss. I also have a Retrax bed cover. It doesn't interfere with the bed cover at all.

Retrax mx bedcover (they poly one...)

Handle does not interfere with the rails.

I still use the the bumper step with stake pocket for a handle more often than opening the multipro inner and folding down the handle.

I ordered one of these and it did not come with the hardware to mount it. Can anyone confirm theirs included the hardware?

Ordered my Tailgate Handle a week ago from my dealer and I can confirm it doesn't come with the hardware.

I will post the hardware part numbers as soon as I receive my order and confirm the three hardware part numbers.

BTW the correct Tailgate Handle part number is now 84726114.

I'll also will post some pictures of all the parts before it's installed as it's a simple install.

Looking forward to try this handle out as I'm having trouble accessing the truck's bed area.

Tailgate Handle part number is now 84726114.

Hardware for factory DIY Tailgate Handle install:

Backup plate bracket 84338560.

8mm-1.25 nuts for backup plate 11546459 (2 required)
