Rear cover lock

[VroomKrazy]

does anyone use a tumbler like the one in this picture. And if so could you post pics of how it is installed. Also if you have any other ideas of locking the rear cover.

I would sure like to find some of those hinges

I've seen common tool box lever locks on the bed cover that worked very well.

Home Depot sells the locks and hinges in the cabinet/desk accessories section, and come in chrome or brass. The locks come in different lenghts and thicknesses, and usually the directions are on the package.

I use a Dakota Digital linear actuator to open my lid and it keeps it closed.

Got mine from McMaster-Carr in Atlanta, GA. They have the locks and the hinges. Just regular box top hinges. I use them on the jewelery boxes I build. My trunk lid cover slides back on a set of drawer slides. They will support 300 lbs. Hope I never need to though. LOL :hooray:

Is that the fiberglass lid/bed cover you have on there?
