Stainless Steel Tail Gate Cover from Luckys Fab Shop

[petercyber]

Have anyone heard of ordered this one from @LuckysFabShop? I like it is SS and powder coated. It would be great to know how it compares to JAM Specialty.

I have the JAMs SS tailgate cover. It’s 550$ plus shipping. I wonder how thick Lucky’s product is. JAMS SS thickness matches the existing CT panels. Luckys appears to be half the price I notice.

I like this one because is powder coated and matches the truck trim.

Is the 52 pound weight specification correct?

Here are pictures of lucky’s installed.

FWIW, I’m a fan.

Worth noting…I have not experienced it yet myself, but I’ve been told the top metal tailgate piece can get HOT ?

I have it too and I love the upgrade from the oem plastic.

It does get hot on really hot days but you never really have to touch the trim for more than a moment.
In other words, you never touch it long enough for you to go "ouch!"

Its awesome. Great upgrade! We'll worth it.

Looks great, does it flex a lot in the front like the plastic OEM? seems like there are only 4 screws in the rear, the front could still lift or rattle?

There's no flex whatsoever. This is SOLID. No lifting or rattling. It comes with a foam strip that u place underneath it to prevent possible rattling.

Where did you see that? I doubt it weights that much

Thank you for sharing Brandon.

I just talk to them and it is because it's a big box, that was the smaller box they have to choose from the options UPS have, but the cover is about 10 lb.

I have one. I think it weighs 8 pounds. I like it. It gets hotter than hell in the desert sun but so does the stainless.
