    Hi all, wife got me the manual pop n lock. I have a 2010 dbl cab prerunner. I have read of problems with the manual one after 3-6 months. Should I trade it for the power one or install it?

    I have a manual one and haven't had any problems honestly going through 2 years in Montana. If I were to do it again I'd go power because why not...

    Installed a Pop and Lock 8521 (powered) a few weeks ago. Everything worked fine. Today, I tried to unlock it and heard the actuator work but the gate didn't unlock. Tried to lock and unlock it a few timse and finally got it open. When I uncovered everything, I found that the bolt was interfering with the bracket that it slides in and out of. I put some lube in the areas where the bolt rubs on the bracket and it works fine now. I'm afraid it may get stuck again in the future. Any suggestions?
