Bongo Fury

I'm looking to replace the whole rear door of my bongo as its been reversed into a skip its crushed the whole area just above the number plate taking out the opening handle etc, luckily the rear screen is ok as are the rear pillars either side of the door.

Does anyone have any advice on how to swap this out? Also any ideas where can I get a replacement?

Thanks for you help.

a couple of people are breaking bongos on ebay also try bellhill as a start.

Sorry to hear that your taigate needs replacing, all i can say is that it looks flippin heavy! Have as many spare "hands" as possible around when changing it over, i'd be tempted to knock up some kind of prop, on top of a jack for fine adjustment when re-fitting... Scribe a line around the hinge flange before they are undone too, if you line up the new tailgate with them, it can't be TOO far out of line...

Is the frame of the tailgate that fits the opening still OK?

If so would it be possible to get one of the re-skin panels that do away with the rear handles fitted, instead of replacing the whole thing?

Phil at JAL Worcester often has one or two breaking.

There is a tailgate on ebay at the mo
