I can't tell what components I need to complete my 1985 M1009 tailgate repair. (All part numbers reference LMCTruck catalog page 44.)
I bought the Tailgate handle w/o Lock 38-6678, Lock Cylinder 36-0859 Pawl 360781, Spring 30-3177. I took these to a locksmith and was disappointed that the cylinder can't be keyed to match the ignition key. The locksmith didn't even have a blank to make an extra copy of the LMC keys.
Attached is a photo of my assembly after the cylinder, pawl, and spring have been installed. It didn't look that hard to do. As far as I could tell, he:
• found the cylinder rotation that allowed the cylinder to slide in and out and held it about half-in/half-out.
• inserted the spring and pawl
• fully inserted the cylinder and then rotated it
At a minimum, the above instructions will get you close.

Looking at the photos below how many more parts do I need to buy? Do I need a clutch or is the clutch already attached? Do I need:
• Clutch #360782 $20
• Ring #36-0783 $5
• Nut-handle #30-0868 $0.65

Are the bolt and nut sticking out from the tailgate the stock components? What parts do I need to repair what's visible in the view of the tailgate? I don't understand how the handle assembly couples to the visible tailgate parts.
The threads on the bolt sticking out form the tailgate has damaged threads. Is that the:
• Screw-Latch Control $25 (or is it a temporary fix that someone added.)
• What's the rusted part under the star lock washer? Does it need replaced?
Thanks,
Irv
