My "new" "used" 2006 Lone Star 4x4 quad cab 5.9 cummins has an emblem on the tailgate that say "RamLock". In searching the internet for RamLock I see references to automatic locking tailgate and also to locking differential.So what exactly is "RamLock"?Scott

Google brings up a lot of links. Is there a key inside your tailgate handle? If so I think we've narrowed the possibilities. Honestly, I'd rather not advertize my anti-theft devises... rather the bad guys get surprised.

There is no key hole or other visible lock anywhere on the tailgate that I can find. Google does bring up a lot of links but there is no consistent definative answer as to what RamLock is. There is nothing in the owners manual about RamLock that I can find.

Ram Lock emblem look anything like this (Click)

Nope it doesn't look like any of those pictures. Best I can tell from lots of googling is that it is an electronic tail gate lock. This truck has a switch on the dash that is connected to the battery and then the wires run along the driver side frame rail back to about the level of the spare tire where it ends in a plastic connector. Normally these are wired into the door locks so the key fob will also unlock the tailgate but I think the previous owner wanted a manual electric lock. At some point he removed the lock from the tailgate and just left the switch and wires. So the emblem is getting peeled off today.
