When I bought it the dealer said it would not fit, probably a sales pitch to buy the slt or higher trim but I can measure mine if you'd Ike and we can compare

I’m interested for the Silverado side of things. Noticed they added it this year to the higher trims. Stepdad has it on Sierra. Wife and I love it. He uses his all the time. If it’s not too pricey and able to. Would love to switch to this on my truck.

I thought someone here priced out the parts new and it’s like a $3000 tailgate plus paint. Probably why it hasn’t been done. Cheaper to trade the truck.

It is an awesome feature, there are plenty of junkyards with them, just have tk be patient and search

There’s some HD take offs on eBay for $2850 and $3200. Those aren’t the same as the 1500 tailgates though. Also a dented black one that someone dropped on their hitch for $2400. I dunno, maybe I’m the only one who thinks this is stupidly expensive to attempt. No telling that the thing even plugs in and works either. I’m sure the BCM is involved in its operation.

Ya I agree with OnTheReel with this one. I’m interested but if it’s gonna be around $3k. I’ll wait 3 years and buy a new left over 2023 with all of it plus super cruise and updated interior.

July 2020 i bought a lightly damaged 1500 multiflex tg . rebuilt it with new GM parts and installed on my 19RST , all good except the upper tg accuators will not function. power and ground is good switch is good. Dec. 20 traded19 for a 21 with 3.0 duramax. installed tailgate, same issue. Jan. 21 my GM dealer says its a bcm issue and GM won't release program info because the Chevy Mflex Tg has not been officially released yet.  going to try and bypass the bcm.for upper accuators. The 19+ trucks owner manuals show the fuse locations for the MP/ MF TG's and the fuse blocks have all fuses except one on the 19,  21 has all fuses in place.   also FYI the new body style tailgates are not interchangeable from 1500 to 2500 etc . the 2500 Tg's are about an inch shorter in height and will not line up at the latch's since they are shorter...neither pieces of the 2500 MF TG's are  interchangeable to a 1500.  

any info on getting the complete TG to function properly will be greatly appreciated.

has any one checked to see if a new body style 2500 hood will fit a NBS 1500 truck? or has anyone fitted a 2500 oem hood scoop on their 1500?

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
