Default Tailgate Lock...

Does anybody know of any electric tailgate locks that can be wired up with the door locks? I'm worried that mine may grow legs during the middle of the night. Thanks!

nope, there are no tail gate locks available to my knowledge. what you can do though is get one of them metal screw straps and put it on the right side where the tail gate has the notch to come out. unless the crook has a screwdriver he wont be able to get it off.

hey, you can almost find anything out there these days... one of the setups I was considering was to lock the tailgate and get a flush toneau cover from checker http://www.checkerpro.com/hardcovers.html I like the flush mount setup.

That IS really cool !!

I like it because you can now open your tailgate without having to lift the cover first. I'll bet it's a heck of a lot lighter too.

Nice find Steve !!

Bully makes a tailgate lock that replaces the OEM handle. I have one and it looks totally stock
