    Before you chime in:

    - I do not want a pop-n-lock
    - I do not want to swap the latch with a keyed latch
    - I do not want to use a simple hose clamp (scratches the paint)
    - I just want the tailgate hinge pin lock

    - My tailgate hinge has some sort of double edge, the locks in the photo don't slide over, not even close, not even with the soapy water or K/Y
    - I bought two of them from different suppliers on Amazon hoping they would be a little different (they weren't)
    - The bracket from @vincedprince seems to no longer be available.
    - On Amazon, the McGard locks says "does not fit 2010 Toyota Tacoma" - seems strange.

    Any suggestions?
