The Ford Ranger owners manual suggest the following steps to remove the tailgate and in-line connector for the backup camera:
1. Locate and disconnect the in-line connector. It is under the pickup box on the center right-hand side of the vehicle near the spare tire.
2. There is a protective cap in the glove box. Install it on the in-line connector that remains under the pickup box. (optional)
3. Partially lower the tailgate. Carefully feed the tailgate harness up through the gap between the pickup box and the bumper and place it out of the way under the Ranger pickup box.
4. Lower the Ranger tailgate.
5. Use a screwdriver to gently pry the spring clip on each connector past the head of the support screw. Disconnect the cable.
6. Disconnect the other cable.
7. Lift the tailgate to 45 degrees from horizontal.
8. Lift the right side off its hinge.
9. Lift the tailgate to 80 degrees from horizontal.
10. Remove the tailgate from the left side hinge by sliding it to the right.
Reverse the steps to reinstall the tailgate.

I have a 2022 Ranger and the right side of the tailgate just popped out when I was opening it. Freaked me out because there is a new hinge retaining hardware assembly that is supposed to prevent this but your video shows clearly that prior models didn’t have it so it’s no big deal. I was ready to go to the dealership and go Yee Yee on em. Thanks.
Excelente job to you and kudos to the camera man. Wonderful execution.
Thank you very much!
@@PYR-Auto any tutorial on removing the rear bumper 2019 ranger?
Thanks 4 the video
You're Welcome!
Thanks!
Thanks for the support! We really appreciate it
I was convinced I destroyed my work truck this morning lol. Thanks bro!
You're Welcome!
My tailgate is not latching on to my truck, the bottom clamps on and fits fine, but I cant get the top of my truckbed to latch on
Hi I am based in the UK and have to remove the bolts to remove the tailgate. Looking to fit the mounting pins you have on the tailgate and on the chassis. Do you know where I can purchase them?
These came installed this way from the factory - I'm really not sure where a good place to purchase them aftermarket would be, sorry
I've thought about removing mine for a diy truck bed camper build but not crazy about losing the back up cam. Anyone know of an adapter for the Ranger for an aftermarket cam plugging into the stock socket after tailgate removal?
Same problem with a GAZELL camper.. solution bought a original camera from a wreck ford ranger.
@@morales62126 not a bad idea. Thanks.
hello, it's possible to put this system in a 2017 ranger wildtrak ? thanks
Im really not sure on that
How do you remove the front emblem on a 2019 Ford Ranger Lariat
Not sure - I've never done it
2023 Ford Ranger Wildtrak is absolut complicated in this thing...
I was unloading some charcoal bags from the trunkbed and the right side just fell off
Same 😢😢😢
The same I'm dealing with rn, what did you do?
The tailgate very easily can slide back in, left side first and then right side. However, I had a hard time at first getting the right side in because the little tab wouldn't slide in due to a plastic piece not letting it. The solution was simple: just use your finger and rotate that little plastic piece until the notch lines up. Then just slide the tailgate tab in there and you're all fixed. There is no need to unscrew anything, use tools etc
How much for the whole tailgate
Not sure how much they new, I've seen used ones for around $300-400
The tailgate attachment is very cheap on the new Ranger. Taking it on and off can bend that bracket causing it to just fall off during normal open/closing. Mine fell off the other day and scratched the paint.
Good video, just had to use ear pods.
What about the dummy plug you put on after the removal of the tailgate found in the glovebox on new trucks? www.ranger5g.com/forum/threads/what-is-this-plug-in-module.2451/
Sorry one down for not mentioning it.
You don't need to put the dummy plug in just to remove or change the tailgate but if your going to have it off for an extended time or doing something that could cause dirt to get in the connector then yes it is a good idea to use.
Sound is awful1
