I installed my pop and lock tailgate lock today, which was a pain in the ***. When I finished, I tried it out....Only the right side latch of the tailgate locked, the left side still moved when I pulled the handle in the locked position. Is this right or did i install it wrong? I searched and couldn't find the answer anywhere on here..

 

Yeah thats right

 

wow, that's kinda crappy craftsmanship. It doesnt seem too secure. I think if you gave it a good yank, it will probably open!? WTF!?

 

No you'll break the handle before the lock does. I wasn't really a fan of it either though, the one on my 150 is totally secure.

 

thanks for the quick response, much appreciated!!

 

I know your problem...you forgot to drop it. If you dont drop it after you pop and lock it, it wont function properly. So...go pop lock and drop it!

 

^LMAO!

 

Yeah, thats how its supposed to be. Trent is right, you won't get it open still, the handle would break first. If you are concerned still, get a metal handle.


Why was it a pain to install? It took me 15 minutes to do mine, while taking pictures for the tutorial too.

 

dont forget background music!

 

 

invalid parameters.. fail!

 

FAIL!

 

LMAO!!

 

there u go lol


FAIL it worked once and now it doesnt!BOOOOOO

 

I can open mine when it is locked...it sucks, I have it unlocked now, but it is now a PITA to open.
