Husky Liners Premium 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate Installation - 2006 Dodge Ram Pickup- Video

Today on our 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 Quad Cab, we'll be installing the Husky Liners Premium 5th Wheel Louvered Tailgate with locking handle, part number HL15330. This tailgate's great for, if we want to tow a goose neck trailer like we have a hitch for here, or a 5th wheel trailer. It will allow us easily hook up to our trailer, still our bed secure and, as you see, anything we put in here, like our tow straps to secure a vehicle on to our car hauler or whatever we need to tie down on to our trailer, we can still have in the bed of our truck without having to worry about them coming out. The aerodynamic vents allow air to pass through smoothly and improve our fuel economy when we're driving down the road. As you can see, this tailgate follows the contours of our vehicle nicely and the silver paint on it matches the silver paint on this truck very closely. It's nice feature, you don't have to worry about getting your tailgate painted if you own a silver truck. This tailgate features a lightweight aluminum construction, which is half the weight of traditional steel tailgates. It has a multi-coat finish that offers superior rust resistance even if it's scratched and has weight capacity of 200 pounds. Okay, the first thing we need to do is get our factory tailgate off. more
