Tailgate Lock Options For A 1999 Dodge Ram Pickup

Question

Question:

ETrailer, Looking for a tailgate handle for my 1999 Dodge Ram. Looks like the frontrunners are Bully LH 006 or the PopandLock PL 3300. Do you handle other or both of these and which would you recommend? I assume the s are correct. Thanks, Jim

Hey Jim,

It looks like we used to offer the LH-006 but no longer do so I have either a powered or manual lock option from Pop & Lock:

- Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock - Power - Black # PAL8320
- Pop & Lock Custom Tailgate Lock - Manual - Black # PAL3300

With the age of the truck I'd honestly just stick with a manual lock to avoid splicing into any wiring that could be brittle at this point. It'll also be quite a bit easier to install since you won't have to run wires through the tailgate and then up to the driver's door to tap into the lock wiring.
