    hey guys! so I have a pop n' lock on my tailgate, but since I'm extra paranoid, and I haven't had to remove my tailgate on either truck I've owned, I have heard using hose clamps on the gate helps? What size in particular? Thanks!

    I currently have a clamp, but I plan to buy a jimmyjammer gatekeeper. It works like the clamp, but probably a little harder to get off. Not to mention, you could probably install it with some lock-tite if you don't plan to take the gate off and on, which would make it even harder to remove quickly. I think between the two, you wouldn't have any troubles with it walking off.
