When I got my truck painted, I threw them on since I was replacing alot of the old brackets. Made a huge difference. I always thought the metal tailgate supports were what rattled all the time and had been looking at cable options. Not the case. Much quieter now.

I did both the poly pivots and tailgate cables at the same time, so I can't tell you the pivots alone cut out the rattle, but it's gone.

I did mine in steps, i put on the poly bushings and it was quieter, but still a rattle then the cables then quieter but rattle, next i took gorilla tape to the closing latch brackets and then shhhhhhhhhhh silence...i would say all 3 things will make it whisper quiet
