I am doing the right But I cannot get the band to stay in place to wrap around the pivot.

It keeps going under the door or it hangs up under the pivot without coming through.

I did open it up a bunch and set it around the body side, pointing up towards the top of the bed, then set the tailgate on it.

Maybe I can take pic tomorrow

I slid the tailgate off of the pin, put the lock on the barrel with the opening faced towards the pin, then put the tailgate back on and spun the pins around to lock it. It took a little forcing to get it spun around, but it will.

This is very easy solution especially on a truck ....instead of jumping the battery you just climb under the truck and put the positive cable onto the starter ....I had to do this on an expedition ..took about 5 seconds and bam the keypads were all powered up .....

You can also add a piece of heavy insulated wire to the + of your battery and drop it through the engine compartment. Insulate the end well and secure it to something you can get to from under the truck. Then if everything goes dead (very unlikely) just hook up another battery with jumper cables or a charger to this wire and another to your frame and you will have enough power to at least open the door locks with the remote or keypad.

Just make sure your rifle is sighted in for whatever distance your truck is from your bedroom window at night.

Pickup truck+chain can rip the doors off any garage door. That doesn't mean I'm going to leave my garage open or unlocked.

I hate thieves. I want to make their job as difficult as possible.

I know the 2010 super dutys are about as easy as these ford rangers and we have the same door handles.

I like the Death Wobble accessory!
