Tailgate Letter Template

[lucky7_1080]

Hi folks. I installed a new tailgate on my 1979 and it’s not pre-drilled for the OEM “FORD” letters. Does anyone know where I can find a template to ensure proper spacing?

And, no don’t have access to the old gate to measure.

Thanks all!

Couldn’t wait for a reply. Found a good head on photo, printed, scaled up to match letter size to get spacing. Laid out grid on photo to mark mounting posts. Taped template to tailgate, aligned a leveled, drilled and mounted. Voila.

Did you have any issue with the latches on the side of the tailgate being smaller then OEM ?
