An integrated hinge and striker assembly is affixed to one of a first and second vertically aligned sidewalls of a motor vehicle for connecting a tailgate to the motor vehicle. The integrated hinge and striker assembly includes a hinge base, the hinge base being vertically aligned with a first end portion, a center portion, and a second end portion, a hinge extending from the first end portion of the hinge base, a striker extending from the second end portion of the hinge base, and wherein a vertical axis is defined parallel to the hinge base and running through the striker and the hinge. Integration ensures proper operation of a bi-directional hinge that allows the tailgate to be opened to one of two different open positions.
