    I tried a couple times to buy this product. I could never get an answer on how to pay for it. I’m not super tech savvy so I asked for help but received none.
    Looked like a good product too. Oh well, I went with another vendor.

    I got one similar to this years ago from a member who made them. I don’t know if it’s the same one as this one. But it’s been full proof the entire time. I recently unlocked it with no problem. We were all worried it would be an issue because of dirt getting into the lock.

    Heres a bright idea. It has a keyed lock. Lock it.

    I installed my tailgate anti-theft device I got from christian06 today. No issues. The powder coating looks great!

    I removed my tailgate, used an X-Acto to score the paint around the factory bolt, tapped the bolt with a center punch a few times, then used a hand impact tool to break it loose. An 18" breaker bar finished the bolt removal. I replaced the factory bolt with a T45 safety screw.

    Time and money well spent in my opinion. Thanks christian06!
