After months of listening to the back door/tailgate squeek over every bump and after gear changes, I finally got over to a mates and borrowed his lasy tong pop rivet gun. Thanks to this site I knew what was causing the squeek and how to fix it. Only took 10 mins to remove door card, drill and fix 5mm rivets and refit card.
Truck feels much more solid now its quiet over the bumps.
 
Nicely done :thumb2

Bet ur happy ur back doors not squeaky now eh :lol

Just a quick note, any bits of steel cuttings will drop to the bottom of the door and start to rust, and will very quickly cause serious rust on the door, however, if you brush in some waxoyl to the area you have drilled and to the bottom of the door, this should virtually stop it.:thumb2

Thanks for the tip. Was planning on taking door card off again as need to clean out a lot of glass framents which have been left in the bottom of the door.
