Lift gate hinges. Also need a pic of the bottom of a lift gate. Do they have some kind of lip on them for a seal to go on or what?

No, upper hinges for the lift door on the roof... Not the tailgate. Sorry

Some parts will depend on the year your upper tailgate was made (i.e. SII vs. SIII). Here is a link to the parts exploded diagram:
http://www.series2forum.co.uk/Gallery/displayimage.php?pid=4256&fullsize=1

Item 46: hinge to hardtop
Item 47: Nut plate, hinge
Item 50: Early SII support/strut
Items 51-59: Late SIII+ support/strut
Item 41: lower bubber seal
Tem 42: galvanized cover strip

Other than noted above, I believe the other parts are basically the same. I have an early upper tailgate completely disassembled, to be swapped over to a new frame. I can get pictures of any of these parts if you need them.

I have an surplus SIII (NOS) external skin if you need it. It's currently on a new frame, but I need the frame for my old skin...

Mine is the new style that I bought from RN about 2 years ago but never used it yet. IT does not have #41 or 42 on it. How do I go about sealing it to the lower tailgate?

Yes, I am looking for 46, 47 and the part that 46 hooks onto on teh roof top.

41 and 42 make the seal to the lower tailgate.

Randy,

Keep looking for upper tailgates. Some will turn-up in poor condition, but with hardware. A reasonable seller will let it go for what it is (rusted-out), and you can score most of the hardware in one shot.

I bought one a couple years back that I thought I could use as is, but the frame was thinned out by rust to the point it would not support the hinges. Everything but the frame is finally going on my 109.

Or ask Tom B. to look for the hardware in the UK. He might be able to pick up a complete gate with hardware...
