Where to buy Pullout Tailgate?

[OhhhhhhSnap]

It's the one accessory I was looking forward to and I've seen only one confirmed person that actually has it installed...

Accessories guy at the dealer doesn't know what I am talking about and it's not on Ford's accessories website. It is in the Ford B&P though.

@Ford Motor Company where can I buy this product? Did I have to order it from the factory? I was always under the impression we would be able to order it as DIO?

Thanks

We told you, once you pick up the Bronco, your credit card starts to cry. It's just how it works.

I've been wondering the same thing since it was announced that the part was moved to '22 and it was factory installed only. Haven't heard anything.

It's not available as of now from Ford or as an accessory. If it was, the system is saying the list for the main part, not including hardware or brackets, is about $2,600.

It’s only factory installed at this time. I’ve got one, and there is no part number. It doesn’t look Ike an easy install since there is modification to the body/frare.

Thanks for the update Flip. Figured that was the case. Sucks it wasn't initially ready.

M2DZ-78467A33-A is the slider they call "seat and tray- slide out tailgate". I think the brackets are M2DZ-78402B59-A and M2DZ-78402B60-A, screws might be W709055S439.

The catalogue doesn't have illustrations listed but I got this from a HVBOM report then checked the numbers in Ford's parts system to make sure they were valid. Based on what DOW said, there are no service parts available anywhere yet and had other indicators like they don't intend to any time soon.

I'm surprised that nobody from the aftermarket has tried to make one yet.

I think there is a pretty big challenge with the slides. Unless I am misunderstanding how this thing works, in order to support the advertised weight the slides likely need to be built in such a way they can bolt to the body with some significant reinforcement where they attach. I thought pretty hard about trying to make one myself, but I couldn’t engineer a solution that would be average-user-installable, which really kills its marketability

I know it's not the same, but even something that had legs that would be hinged into the tailgate itself that when slid out could be dropped for support? Who knows, I could be drinking early today because that would no longer be a tailgate then. Lol.

The bolts for the front tie downs in the cargo area should sufficient. Designed to hold the drawer organizer from tipping out with the drawer at full rated capacity. But somebody will want to attach the drawer cabinet to the slideout and have something slid out 6 feet at which point something will break.

You could always build your own slide-out starring with industrial slides like these

I thought about that, but wasn’t able to find bottom-mount slides that I could make fit those tie-down bolts. Side-mount slides would work but the resulting product wouldn’t be as sleek or “oem integrated” as the Ford version. I’m sure it’s doable, but competing with Ford on a similar product would require my solution to be quite a bit better IMO. Maybe availability to the aftermarket is a big enough differentiator. Maybe beating their price by a little would help… Maybe I should give it another look

Only included as factory install on Black Diamond trim or lower. Maybe a weight issue for the premium models?

Dunno, I put one in my '21 BL just to prove it was possible. Direct bolt in but have to buy a new trim strip for the back or remove it so you can access the table latch. The table and parts together are less than 75lb I think.
