Factory-installed slide-out tailgate removal

dammm - if only you were closer we could swap out!

I’m not going to sell the slide-out.
If I was ever to sell my Everglades (heresy talk) , the slide-out should be included.

Quick Slide-out tailgate question (I apologize if in a different thread somewhere else that I couldn't find). I have 2023 Wildtrak with optional slide out tailgate. Does this prevent all access to the spare tire jack and tool area? What happens if I need to change my tire?
I asked the dealership and they have no idea.

To answer your question, you still have access.

It's a shame that too few Ford salesmen know anything about the Bronco. I found one who does and my loyalty will never waiver.

Thank you for the quick response. How can I get access to the jack and storage area. I searched the different chat boards. Couple mentions of pulling the slide tail gate all the way out and then can somehow access but no real instructions. I am going to play around with it tonight when I get home to see if I can figure it out. Any instructions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance

You will need to slide out the tailgate all the way, then lift the top piece up. This will expose the cargo area where the jack is located. Pull up the felt that covers your jack and remove it as usual.
Again: You will need to extend the tailgate all the way out to get to the jack access.
