Fact #4: Tundra Tailgate working surface is less then 1.3 millimeters thick.

Quote: No quote on this, actual measurements.

Source: This “Statement of Fact” comes from actual measurements that can and should be verified by anyone with a micrometer. Twelve (12) measurements were taken by micrometer (via access plate removal) of tailgate working surface. Measurements varied from 1.2 mm to 1.3 mm. I rounded up.

Conclusion: [u]Tundra tailgate metal is thinner then 1.3 millimeters as these measurements includes thickness of paint and rust proof coatings.


Note: Does anyone with a micrometer have access to an older Toyota pickup or a Ford, Chevy or Dodge Pickup truck? Would be interested to see how this compares.

Note 2: If your micrometer only records in inches, 1.3 mm converts to 0.0512 inches, rounded up.
