I cut up my factory one but I saved all mounts, latch, bumper and mounting hardware and the heim joint styled ends from the frame.

$100 off Craigslist. And a couple people say they are a dime a dozen in their area. Not in mine.

All I have are these 2 pieces. Willing to part with any I am missing?

There are two metal reinforcement plates that mount inside the liftgate, bolted through the exterior plate. You are also missing a critical part that mounts behind the bumper that reinforces the external bumper mount. Additionally you are missing the license plate light that mounts on the liftgate to the left of the swing arm.

I know what I am missing from scoping out my parts catalog. If and when I use this it will have to be adapted to put on an '00. I figure the backing plates to reinforce could just be fabricated out of some steel, maybe, but getting the actual parts might be better. I have seen license plate relocation kits on the internet but have gotten far enough to research which one I would use.

Too bad. Seeing how that type mounts on the rear quarter and bumper I am guessing that none of them will work. So before you go through all that trouble let me consult my parts catalogs and take a look to see what's what.
Thank you for offering.
