Rear Tailgate Latch for Mitsubishi Pickups

This sturdy rear tailgate latch keeps your cargo bed gate closed, sealed, and secure. Built for tough pickup use, it restores smooth locking action and stops rattles. It’s the right fix when your tailgate won’t catch, needs too much force, or pops open on bumps.

Why this part is needed

A healthy latch protects tools, gear, and the tailgate itself. It also keeps dust and water out of the bed and prevents hinge and panel damage caused by constant slamming.

How it works ⚙️

The handle pulls a rod that rotates a pawl inside the latch body. The pawl grabs the striker on the bed side, then a spring loads it to hold tight. Corrosion-resistant metal and bushings keep motion smooth. With light grease, it locks and releases in one firm move.

What happens if it fails ❗

Failure causes hard closing, misalignment, rattles, or a stuck gate. In severe cases, the gate can open while driving, risking cargo loss and body damage. Ignoring it can bend the striker and warp the tailgate skin.

Tech tips

Check striker alignment, replace stretched rods/clips, and lubricate with lithium grease. Bolt-on swap using factory holes; basic tools only. Avoid slamming—adjust instead.
