Good To Know

Q: Does this set include the screws or mounting hardware? A: No, the set contains only the handle and bezel; reuse the original screws or source equivalent fasteners from a hardware store.

Q: Will this handle work with the tailgate lock on later C/K models? A: The handle is designed to match the factory latch mechanism and works with both lock and non-lock tailgates across the 1988-2000 range.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
