Clocked 600 miles today and I stated getting the rattle from the tail gate. Any fix for this?

Duct tape.

Honestly it depends on what is causing the rattle. Loose hinge screws? Is the bump stop actually touching the spare tire? Is it a soft top and you need a piece of soft Velcro between the arms/hinges? Lots of possibilities here.

Take a look at this thread on 6G. Maybe this will give you some ideas.

None of the above. Not bump stop. Mic top or any of the other options. User on bronco 6g says he had to have his replaced as it was the weld points near the hinge. Do not want to have to deal with dealership run around
