    I've got one that I got off Amazon which has a sleeve that fits over the receiver (rubber) with a hinge that holds it when in use. Would be easy enough to cut off, but prevents a grab and dash at least.

    I bought one of these with a lock. The lock will also secure the hitch when installed. Now I just need a truck to put it on.

    I went through the same thing with mine. I had the shield hitch plate and lock 2 months before my truck arrived.

    Yeah. Guilty. I have a stockpile of things sitting on my workbench and the tonneau cover is slated for delivery on Friday. AG Pro is on the train and is scheduled to arrive at the dealership 3-10 Feb.

    Installed the complete tailgate lock kit from @KTJO 4x4 and couldn’t be happier. No drilling and all plug and play :thumbsup:

    Very little bending required. The trick that no one tells you is to pull the wire harness on the driver’s side and the AC lines on the pax side out of the way from the top before you begin. The driver’s side harness requires removal of a (you guessed it) 10mm bolt.

    I did mine a couple days ago and absolutely love it. I added a 2 pin waterproof connector at the same location as the backup camera plug in case I need to remove the tailgate, and I wrapped the wire harness in foil tape where I ran it next to the factory wrapped harness near the muffler.

    Great idea to add the 2 pin connector right at the tailgate! I'll have to go back and do this just in case I need to remove the tailgate for any reason.

    Got the front windows tinted and removed the chrome emblems. Small, tasteful stuff. 30% front, rear factory metered at 27%. Its a good matched and not a noticable difference.
