That conforms to what my parts list manual say for my '98
55174826 for the right
55174827 for the left

I am not sure what the -AC is for.

Thanks, Tom.

Tail gate sits flat w/ the original strap, so maybe the new one is the
wrong part. They sold me
part no. 55174826-AC cable TAI 23043029. Can anyone confirm whether
this is the correct part
number for a right side tailgate strap for a 99 Dak?
