Tailgate hinge lock

I'm looking for an anti-theft device for the tailgate on my 2000 Frontier.

I had the tailgate stolen on my 95 Hardbody. The dealer, at the request of my insurer, installed a hook-like device that prevented the gate from being lifted off the hinges. It was secured by a bolt that required a specially-shaped driver (which they gave me, of course).

I can't find one of these---the dealer seems to not know what I'm talking about.

Any help with this, or with a decent gate lock?

Thanks.

Joe

The part you are looking for is the Nissan Tailgate Lock, P/N: 999T7-D6000. It's still available to my knowledge for about $12, +/-.

Thanks a million. My dealer even seemed puzzled---a part number will really help.

It wasn't a widely sold accessory. I have it on my 97 HB. If your part's guy wants to know where i got the number, tell him it's listed in the '99 Nissan Wholesale Parts Quick Referance Catalog. Nissan put this catalog out in '99 to list the most popular selling items for '88-'99 models (brake pads, fusible links, window regulators, all kinds of stuff). The catalog was a great idea. but for some reason, Nissan didn't release another edition after it. The tailgate lock was listed in the accessories section.

Try calling West Valley, I got two versions from them over the years. Hell, I might even be willing to sell mine if you don't have any luck. Z

I had one on my 95 Hardbody. Do they make one for an 06 Frontier? Thanks
