Tailgate Cable Sticking
Hey all,
One of the cables in my tailgate (the one that goes to the driver's side latch) is constantly getting stuck so I cannot open my tailgate without risking breaking something
Any thoughts on how I could fix this? I've already sprayed like half a can of WD40 down it and fiddled with it like crazy, it seems to help for like a day, but that's it.
Any ideas?

REmove cable, make sure its straight. Take that can of wd40 and throw it across the room, that stuff is not a good lubricant. Go get something better (I use honey goo).
