Expert Answers about Ram Tailgate Locks


  • Recommendation for Locking Tailgate on 2006 Honda Ridgeline
  • The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock - Manual - Black # PAL6100 is a fit for your vehicle but does not have the ability to use that same vehicle ignition key. What most people prefer is the power and manual lock option which allows you to lock your tailgate with the power lock system already integrated in your vehicle. When you lock the doors, you lock the tailgate too and the same for unlocking. The manual lock then with separate key is only for situations where you want to keep that...

  • How Does the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock Prevent the Tailgate From Being Stolen
  • The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock part # PAL8250 is a manual to power tailgate lock conversion kit. I am not sure I would say that this product will make your tailgate more secure as it is more of a convenience feature because it lets you use your key fob to lock and unlock the tailgate. In regards to security, the Pop & Lock The Gate Defender Truck Tailgate Lock part # PAL9900 would actually prevent the tailgate from being stolen and is what I recommend you use as it is very durable...

  • Remote Activated Power Tailgate Lock Recommendation for a 2009 Dodge Ram
  • If you have a 2500 or 3500 2009 Dodge Ram yes, the Pop and Lock Tailgate Lock part # PAL8340 would work well for you, if you had a 1500 you would instead want the part # PAL8350. Either kit does not require that your tailgate have the factory lock in the lever. If you check out the install video I attached you will see that we installed this on a tailgate without the locks.

  • There are a few tailgate lock options for your 2013 Ford F-150. If you want to integrate the lock into your factory power lock system, I'd recommend the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock # PAL8250.

  • Recommended Tailgate lock For 2015 Toyota Tacoma To Use With Bak Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover
  • The locking feature of the BAK Revolver X2 Hard Tonneau Cover, part # BAK39406 relies on the tailgate being locked.

I have attached a link to our product page for the tailgate locks we offer. I recommend a lock like the Pop & Lock Custom Locking Tailgate Handle, part # PAL5500. This lock replaces the OEM tailgate handle on your truck...

  • Tonneau Cover Recommendation for 2006 Dodge Ram Short Bed that Can be Locked with Tailgate
  • What you guys will want is a tonneau cover that only can open when the tailgate is open and then a lock for the tailgate so that everything is locked up. In the lower price range like the Bestop you mentioned we have the Access Lorado part # 834532006601 which requires the tailgate to be open so that you can pull down on the release cord to open the cover. This is a roll up cover, if you prefer the folding style the Bestop part # B1623801 would work too as it requires the tailgate to be...

  • Can the Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock for a 1999 Toyota Tacoma Be Re-Keyed to Ignition
  • The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock part # PAL5100 will not use the same key as the door locks or ignition but it does come with its own set to use. I am also not aware of a tailgate lock for a 1999 Toyota Tacoma that has this feature so you are best off just using the above. If you have electric door locks, you can use the Pace Edwards PowerGate Electric Tailgate Lock part # 311-LK400 and operate the tailgate lock with your door lock. The above are the only two options we have for a tailgate...

  • Will the Pop & Lock Electronic Tailgate Lock Work with No OEM Key Hols in Handle
  • The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock part # PAL8160 is designed to work with keyed or non keyed handles. It will fit in to your existing handle to prevent it from opening. The Switch Kit for Pop & Lock Power Tailgate Lock PAL9520 is a great option to add a switch to non powered door lock vehicles. The Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock with Handle part # PAL1700 is also a great option. It is a replacement handle for your current handle that offers a manual lock.

  • Tailgate Locks for a 2004 GMC Canyon
  • We do have some tailgate lock options for your 2004 GMC Canyon. But Replacement BOLT Lock Cylinder # BL709231 will not work with the 2004 GMC Canyon. It isn't necessarily because of the lock or truck but because it does not accept the 2004 Canyon key. We do have Pop & Lock tailgate locks # PAL1700 and # PAL1700C which are manual locks. Or you could use lock # PAL8160 which will work with power door locks to lock and unlock the tailgate.
