If it should have shorts i will leave them on it. Blocker if you are after some short hinges i can get you some but they are at Berri I hope to get up there some time in the next few weeks should be able to get them for free but just depends if i can get them off .When i bought my van it had long hinges on it but they were bent and the tailgate didnt seal but the new hinges havent improved it much i looked at a few vans at GM day and they had the same problem any ideas ???
