scooter3 Posted March 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 Scooter3 How do the locks/latches work on that top? Is it as secure as any other top like a gaylord for example? Any pics of the locking/latching system? btw,It looks great on your truck! much thanks! The locking system is a little different. There is a metal latch that hangs down at a 90 degree angle off the lock dolt. When the lock gets turned it closes against the latch and holds onto something called a footman loop that is screwed into the tailgate. I have not installed the footman loops so I am not able to lock the top. Here is a pic of the lock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
