Default does your tailgate go up or down?

I thought I was right on assuming that 98+ had the full tailgate opening up(handle on the outside), and the 95-97 had the split tailgate(handle on the inside)(where the window goes up and the tailgate folds down) But then I was looking on ebay and saw a 03 with the folddown tailgate.

Do these things have any perticular order to anything?
I've seen floor shifts and column shifts, full tailgates and halfs, andother wierd things that seem to have not kind of order too them. I mean sometimes there on a 95-97 sometimes not. Sometimes on 98+ sometimes not.

I'm confused???

I just have the one door. I wish I had a tail gate or half tail gait(tail gait like pickup and the window open).

I've got the glass hatch that opens up, and a tailgate that folds down...

Maybe it's an option, or it's a 2 door/4 door thing...

On the 4dr, the glass up, tailgate down was the standard with the complete rear liftgate as optional. Bravada's got the rear liftgate as standard as did some of the higher optioned Blazer's & Jimmy's. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think all 2drs come with the glass up, tailgate down design.

I believe the floor shift was standard on the Bravada (depending on year I'm talking about the '96+ Bravada) and was optional on the Blazer's & Jimmy's. It all depends on which boxes were checked when your particular vehicle was ordered.

Default RE: does your tailgate go up or down?

i believe all 2dr's have split tailgate. i've never seen one with a full door, probably because of the curvature on the rear glass. i have a 2dr center shift with split tailgate. I'm doing my best to blow that thing down with the sub i just put in this weekend though. Alpine 10" type s with 400W going to it...whew! my brain is shaking!
