Tailgate Table Parts?

[ekimgnuj]

I have a Jeep branded tailgate table on my JLU, and I broke one of the two straps that supports the table. Can't find any separate part number for it (the table is Mopar Tailgate Table Part 82215416AD). Circled in red in the photo. Anyone have any ideas on where to find something similar? I'm sure someone with mechanical skills could fabricate one easily, not sure I am that guy. If anyone has scrapped their tailgate table or damaged it, I'd be happy to buy yours!

Is it just twisted cable? Can always make your own

Ok, it looks like even I could manage something like that after all, thanks! It wouldn't look as nice as the other support is coated, but it would definitely be functional. If I can't find an OEM I will definitely take this route, thanks!

You can buy coated cable, and also look into heat shrink tubing to wrap around the ferrule and shrink down on it so you dont see it or the sharp cable end.

You can even fabricate something from paracord that should be equally as strong.

Coated cable is available at Home Depot, in a variety of sizes. Sold by the foot.

I personally like the paracord idea.

I thought about that, thanks, I always have a few hundred feet of 550 cord in my Jeep. It's thicker than the pegs that the supports loop around, though, so I would need to replace them too I think. Thanks!

Thanks, I was going to look at Lowes and Home Depot. I would love to use 550 cord but it is thicker than the pegs that it would have to loop around. Thanks!

FWIW, Home Depot and other places sell what looks like 550 cord, but doesn't have the mil-spec weight rating (as will be evident on the packaging.) Possibly the fake stuff, if you're willing to consider it, would have a fractionally smaller diameter for your use case. Just a thought.

Thanks, much obliged. I will hit one of the home stores later today. Thanks!

I had purchased a similar table long time ago. Same thing happened to me and kept happening
It's poorly designed. I replaced 2 and finally upgraded to something much better

Thanks, I love the one you got, I was looking at that too but it was pricier and I thought just the single table might work better for fishing. But when I replace this one, yours is the one I will get! Thanks!
