Stolen tailgate!!!

[Yotman_92]

So my tailgate was stolen while my wife was at work. Any idea where I can buy one? Or does anyone have one for sale? It was on my 3rd gen and metallic gray.

Damn I thought that was just an urban myth. I'm seeing a handful on ebay if you want to buy someone else's stolen one.

Haha that’s what I don’t want to do. I hope I find mine on eBay or OfferUp.

Savages

Yep that's a thing.
If your insurance deductible isn't too high, go through them.

My suggestion for the future is to get an anti-theft bracket. $30 ensures this never happens again.

From my build thread:

Tailgate is safe from high seas piracy at last.

 

[Yotman_92]

Yea I need that

I got mine from someone on TW but theres a bunch of different types. Just search up Tacoma anti theft bracket in google and you'll see them.

Here's one that looks kinda slick for a good price:

That sucks. I have a Pop-N-Lock kit wired in to lock the tailgate with the factory door locks. You could look into that as well.

@nickyreno which one are you running? I like the lower profile one like yours vs the bulkier lock.
