Has anyone seen a locking tailgate latch for an 85? If so let me know I want to get one. Thanx!

I dont know about a locking latch, but I usally just put a hose clamp around that side the slides off. Most theifs wont take the time to mess with it.

No I'm talking about a replacement for the latch. You know how the later models the latch locks. That is what I want for my 85.
