ISO clean tail gate for a 97 Wrangler

[Dragond76]

Well, someone apparently backed into my Jeep and hit the spare tire, which bent the rear tailgate in and cracked the spare tire carrier. Awesome. Oh well, with that being said, does anyone have a spare gate and tire carrier sitting around they'd like to make a few bucks from? I'd like to avoid using my insurance which is why I'm trying to source the parts myself. Any help is appreciated.

For about $150 (I believe) there’s an aftermarket replacement on Quadratec.com

Best wishes!

I just sold my spare carrier, but I do have a factory 3rd brake light from my 98

Thanks for the replies guys, I'm getting an estimate from the body shop now just to see what they'll charge (if it's worth paying my deductible). If it's going in there though it's coming out with a fresh coat of rhino lining too! lol May as well do everything while it's in the shop. I've looked around at some used tailgates and they all seem to have some rust issues or are beat to hell so new is probably the way to go.
