Over the course of a couple of weekends, I finally got the LMC plain-jane tailgate installed:

You can also see that it has some nice new blue dot taillights and the left side of the split exhaust is just barely visible in front of the rear tire.
It was (as usual) more work than I'd anticipated, since the 2 trunnion bracket bolts on the left side had snapped off when I tried to remove them. And the fact that I can't work for more than about 20 minutes at a time before I run out of breath.
But I got it done and did a little write-up here:

I'm REAL glad to have the job done. It's been on my "things to do" list since January.
Now I only need to....well, you know.
