MORryde JP54-057 Installation guide

  • Hello! I've reviewed the provided installation instructions for the MORryde heavy-duty tailgate hinges, specifically models JP54-057, JK, TJ, YJ, and JL. The document provides a step-by-step guide on how to install these hinges, from removing the spare tire to fastening the new hinges. I'm ready to answer any specific questions you might have about the installation process or the product itself.
  • Which hinge should I start with during installation?
    Should I install both hinges at once?
    What kind of bolts are used to fasten the new hinge to the tailgate?
