What happens here

With the step deployed, locate the handle which is typically integrated into the step itself or the tailgate's upper edge. Pull this handle upwards until it is fully extended and locks into its vertical position. This handle provides additional stability and support when climbing into or out of the truck bed, as shown in the video.

Goal: Provide additional support for truck bed access

Tools and materials

  • Hand N/A — To pull up the handle
  • Integrated Tailgate Handle Ford — The part being deployed to provide a grab handle

What they say

All right, I'll be the first to say it. If you want to use the old man helper button, you got to be at least 50 years old. You got to be 50 year old or you got to be lifting some weight up in the truck bed. No other time is it allowed.
