Hello everyone

Has anyone used the "Hidden tailgate latch kit" from Brothers? (http://www.brotherstrucks.com/prodinfo.asp?number=STGL472)

If so, how do you like it?

I am getting ready to remove the stake pockets permanently and would like to get rid of the tailgate chain setup and use the hidden latch system in conjunction with the Mar-K tailgate link system. (Basically and 2 flat steel pieces that are hinged and connect the bed side to the tailgate)

I got my hidden tailgate latches from Frantsen Stainless Products, havn't installed them yet but they look good. Also I used some tailgate support straps I got from a wrecking yard out of some mini truck, they work great.
