if you made some hinges like a suicide door hinge you should be able to get it to work

wot about putting the hinge pocket in behind the roll pan then set the hinge into the tailgate . Should work just like a door (tipped on its side)

Few years ago i saw a truck at a show in phx that had paino hinges for his tail gate. Didnt really get a good look at it but i would assume just make a spacer since paino hinges are much thinner.
