Has anyone installed one of these on their tailgate? I know we can lock them but wouldn't mind a little more security. I hardly ever take off my tailgate so the need to keep tools around shouldn't be a big deal.

 

I didn't put that on but I did put the Jimmi Jammer plate on the tailgate lock. I figured it would be harder to steal the tailgate if they couldn't pop the lock plus a hose clamp will do the same thing as the gate keeper.

 

I like how the website shows you how to steal a tailgate, just in case you didn't already know how

 

Hose clamp? Link, pics, instructions etc...

Thx,

just get a 1" hose clamp and tighten it over the pivot point on the tail gate so the gate can't lift off....

 

A pic, just in case.

 

Uhmmm...I know what a hose clamp is was wondering where on the tailgate to use it.

 

Gotta love the sense of humor on this board!

 

The tailgates have locks on them, why not just use that. Its free and requires no tools to use...

 

We do forget from time to time...
