Hello everyone. A friend of mine has just created an excellent new product that many of you may be very interested in. He is not very internet savvy so I'm trying to get the word out for him, and wanted to hit Dodgeforum.com first.

Like many of you, he had his 2006 Ram Spare tire stolen right out of his driveway, in broad daylight. When armed with the right tools a thief can steal one of these spares in less than 20 seconds. The product he has come up with is a Lockable Access Plug that is inserted into the access hole to retrieve your spare tire. This plug completey Locks & Blocks the access to your spare tire, leaving would be thieves looking for their next target. This kit comes complete with a weatherproof rubber boot that fits on the bottom of the lock to prevent any debris getting into the lock itself. He has soldsome of these toa fewDodge Dealerships across the country but has never sold them online until now. We are working on a website that should be completesoon, but have started offering them on eBayfor now.If you are at all interested please check out the current auction :http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=140183423847

Thanks!!

 

Colt, Model 1911..Greatest deterrent ever made..

 

I think my new Taurus 1911 .45 will be a great deterrent system for the new truck!

 

I personally like my smith and wesson 629 with a 6" its a good idea on the lock though..

 

I always thought most spare tires are stolen by cutting the cable or chain that holds the spare tire in place.

 

Had a similar factory setup on my old GMC except instead of a padlock used inside the insert itself locked in the hole with a key. Great idea since you can't drop the wheel to steal. Was disappointed when I purchased my Dodge that something so simple couldn't be incorporated into the design. Then again it would have cost a few extra cents per vehicle.

 

Yeah, Locks are sweet until you get a flat and the lock is so gummed up you cant get your key into it and have to steal your own spare. makes for a long night

 

I have a mopar thing ( sorry but I don't know whats it called ) that fits on the end of the assembled tire iron to fit a mopar conecter on the whinch assembly that is different than stock ( dealer installed option )

9 times out of 10 the guy stealing your spare drives a Ram or has the key for the factery wheal locks, ect ect...

Your going to risk death if any one goes near my spare, after you grant and groan assembling the tire iron, and drag the 265 75 17 E Bfg and steal rim from under my truck, the cops will have enough time to bring me coffie and donuts ....

 

In reponse to the post above mentioning how locks can get all gummed up and are a pain to remove, this kit comes with a tight weatherproof rubber boot that covers the bottom of the lock, that is easily removed in the event you need to undo the lock. Therefore eliminating any debris from getting into the lock itself.

 

My sons ford has a similar setup stock. It has a place you insert the key by flipping down a little door. I thought it was a pretty good idea to have that.
