    Interested in new connecting rod also as i have delayed my plug-n-play kit until the new rods are available.
    But with that said, your family comes before any of this and I do not mind waiting while you take care of home and family.

    I actually have one to install on my truck this weekend and test out myself. I just haven’t had time to actually install it yet. I plan to do that this weekend and then once I am satisfied, which I am sure I will be, I will list them so that people can upgrade their Rods if you would like to do so.

    What was the issue with the old ones? This alleviates it I assume? Or better material in general?

    UPDATE:

    Ok Everyone...Wow! It has been crazy. I feel like I have gone through like 20 storms. Well the good news is my grandmother got released from the hospital and is finally home. She is SLOWLY recovering. We are getting ready for her second night. Night one wasn’t the greatest so let’s hope Night two is better. It will get better each day.

    Anyhow, let’s just say with her discharge supposed to be on Saturday and then that getting pushed to Sunday, well that pretty much just sucked my weekend. Anyhow, I did install the New Rod, Bolt, and Nut! We are good to go.

    I will be listing them for $10 Shipped to Lower 48 States (Additional Shipping Charges May Apply other Places). So if you would like to update your Rod, you can do so now!!!!

    I have 9 complete full kits done and in my garage right now. I’m thinking tomorrow I will try to get those labeled and out to people by Wednesday. Those Kits do not have the New Rods in them so you will need to upgrade later if you want them.

    Hi everyone. I need some help here. I have the Pop and Lock kit install on my truck to lock and unlock my tailgate. What parts do I need to purchase for the tailgate opener? Thanks in advance.

    If you want me to hold you kit until I get them in yes. Otherwise no. Once they are in they will have them in there. I have them being made now and will be shipped out to me on Friday. 25 of them. So I can either hold off on all shipments or ship the 9 kits I have done.
