🔑 Bully LH-007WD Integrated O.E OE Spec Factory Replacement Rear Trunk Tailgate Lock Door Handle for Dodge RAM 1500 & 2500/3500 (2002-2008/2003-2009) Review

Update June 2020: Key was bent when I tried to unlock it, disappointed with the quality of the key. I'll have to see if the hardware store can make a new one. Otherwise I had no problems with it. First review: I installed it in minutes. Just be sure to tape or mark the places where the hinge rods connect to the old latch. With the new lock there were no problems with the tailgate. Since then I have been hauling wood lying on the back door without any problems. I would recommend this to others…

Bought together with a BakFlip cover for my 2002 Dodge Ram 1500 half a year ago. Installation was extremely easy. Regardless of the lock, it works the same as the factory lock. The same solid feeling. You'll never notice the difference. The key is strange. The lock is a bit hidden under the handle, and you have to point the key up at an angle of 30 degrees or even more. It doesn't matter much. Interestingly, the key has the same shape as the ignition key. It would be great if it could be the…

I had the same problem as many here: The handle doesn't fit snugly on the tailgate. However, if you use a long screwdriver or pry bar and gently pull or tug on the area around the gate opening where the latch is installed. You haven't dented the metal that badly or bent it in any way, just a few gentle pulls and once the lock is in place the metal is pushed down enough that a handle is needed to pull it against the gate where it will be flush. actually pretty easy. I'll take it off and take a…

I bought this tailgate latch handle because I am planning to buy a trunk lid soon. My 03 Ram 1500 didn't have a lock button. It was very easy to install. There are two small screws that hold the handle in place when you remove the access panel from the tailgate. The new Bully clasp feels and works just like the factory clasp. The locking mechanism is smooth, does not jam, the key is easy to insert and remove from the lock. Even if I didn't get a trunk lid, a locking tailgate could still slow…

Works very well. Can't say much about durability or safety, but it was a breeze to install and the price was reasonable. Look, with the vinyl cover on the bed, if someone wants to climb in, they can just cut open the cover with a knife. You just need to eliminate low-hanging fruit and keep prying eyes off the bed. It will also prevent someone from stealing your back door easily. The only limitation I have is that the lock cylinder is in the middle of the handle and gets in the way of your hands

I saw this trunk lock while buying a trunk cover from Revain. I've always wanted a tailgate latch but kept putting it off and since it was right in my face I put it in a trunk lid trolley. I have to say that this was the easiest setup I have installed on my truck in the last ten years. The lock works perfectly. The only downside is probably that the lock is under the handle and your fingers will hit it every time you open the tailgate and it can be a problem with gloves considering the Ram's…

Do you like the handle lock? Yes BUT I don't like the heavy plastic tabs on the keys so I tried contacting Pilot and Bully to ask for new keys. DEAD WIRE. No Answer. So just go to the locksmith, right? nope NO ONE has blank keys that fit this lock. I've been to the best locksmiths and although it "looks" like a Dodge key, it's much thinner and the notches don't quite line up. So there is no way to make one. It is better never to lock the gate and not be able to enter with a spare key. You have…
