Wagon tailgate hinge broken

Postby herkey43 » Mon Oct 19, 2020 5:02 pm

I can't find anything about this on the forum. the tailgate hinge has a problem. the front part has fallen down and trashing paint at roof line. There does not seem to have a bolt holding it up. I don't understand how this is supposed to work. Is there a non-reparable pin part of that "ear"? I'm thinking to lift it up and put a little weld along the edge. But because I can't see how it is supposed to work, maybe there is something else going on... A torsion bar problem? Hmmm, I don't get it.
