Hey there. Other than the junk yard, are there any sites for a replacement tailgate that is more likely to be stronger than stock. I've seen Quadratec and ExtremeTerrain already. Looking for trusted heavy duty tailgate. TIA
 
junkyard is probably your best bet, any other brand of “OEM” tailgate will not be as strong as mopar. Usually thinner Chinese steel.
 
What aspect of the factory tailgate isn't strong enough?
 
Why do you want a stronger one?

If the issue is the tailgate being damaged by the spare (my first assumption) the OP may just need to make sure the tire is secure against the rubber snubbers. But without any more info we are really just guessing.

Because stronger is better lol

OP I would recommend buying an OEM gate and having it painted to match. The fit and quality if the aftermarket parts are never the same.

10-4. Thank you!

Yeah, it got hit and I figured there were more options out there than the Chinese metal ones.
