Most Popular Rack Lock for 2001 Dodge Ram Pickup

After one year of using our swagman, we are very happy. We own RAM 1500 with ram boxes and mounted the swagman at the back end of the bed. We mounted the skewers on the bottom side of the bar, to mount the bar upside down. This let the end brackets mount perfectly on the side walls just in front of the end gate. Our bikes when mounted face the rear. Works great!

This rack fits and functions perfectly in my 2018 Ram Rebel. I have the Ram Box cargo management system and I set it up as recommended and it was great! Then I reversed it, as some other folks have done, and mounted it near the tailgate just off the bed floor. This allows me to load and unload from the ground and it keeps the bikes below the cab roof line. So wherever the truck can go the bikes can go without snagging on anything. Went out for a varied terrain test drive and it didn't budge. Package came clean and undamaged with a completely functional inventory of parts. Every part was machined properly and the lock works as well as the release button. No problems at all with anything! Just rotated the fork mounts 90 degrees for the low mounting position and it was done. Etrailer really came through on this one! I will continue to do business with this company!

rack tends to work itself loose from bed walls during long trips. had to strap down with ratchet straps to keep from moving. locks only work at a specific angle -- wish the manual had said this because we couldn't lock our bikes until figuring it out.

Excellent Customer service and help for this product. Thank you Carol and Neil your the best.
