That might be more than just a couple simple brackets…

ok, found another problem. For some reason, the MFT trucks have the tailgate catch 1" farther forward on the truck than the standard tailgate catches. There's enough space between the frame and the bedside to fab up a bracket to relocate the stud (some welding...), which would allow...

I haven’t found any Alpha OBD settings for it. Right now everything seems to work but I do know that I have a bad actuator. As far as I can tell if one of the actuators for doors is bad it won’t try and open that door.

Thank the guy that hit me on the interstate :) insurance company was going to replace the whole bed, but the body shop fixed the bed and put the extra towards buying the MFT.

I've been posting in another thread on this. Base truck: 2020 Rebel w/ Ram Boxes and a standard tailgate. MFT came from a 2020 (body shop found it). https://5thgenrams.com/community/threads/multifunction-tailgate-retrofit.17611/page-2#post-793387 It is possible, and we're in the middle...

They had to patch the frame and replace the hitch receiver. They found a trx as a donor frame for the 1 foot piece of frame end. What you say makes sense, since the harness that was on the donor chassis was drastically different (and explains why we had such different harnesses between my...

as mentioned in a later post. One is from a TRX (year unknown, might be 2019?), the other from my truck. Basically, totally different wiring, but my 2020 Rebel has all 8 pins populated on the chassis wiring harness.

alright. the update no-one asked for :D They got the gate frame mounted in the truck. No problems there. The wiring harness was removed from the tailgate while they painted the tailgates. Easiest to mount the frame first, then put the barn doors on, since the entire assembly is so heavy...

My body shop guy ran into this…. Anyone got any idea why the harnesses between the original tailgate and the new one look so vastly different? It’s not just a yellow wire…

I THINK I need the schematic (and pinout / wire purposes) for MOPAR 68381399AC

Alright boys and girls. My truck got rear ended out on the interstate a month ago. 28,500 worth of damage. Still not totaled. My body shop guy came up with an MFT. We’re working the retrofit. Does anyone have access to the schematics for the tailgate wiring harnesses for the MFT and...

I can oulk the STL file and host it if you want. I like your idea for the simplicity…. Mine had a specific purpose, as I was planning the install from start to finish

i've run into this on my '20. I think the issue is the body panel under the headlights. Your bumper sits ~2" higher than a Laramie or Longhorn type Ram. If you mount the bumpers / bars you're looking at on the Rebel, they'll appear to sit 2" lower (really 1.75" from what i've read), leaving...

yeah, sorry, not thingverse... my mistake. check the tinkercad link i posted.
