go with Autoloc or SPAL. (and electric-life is supposed to be real good, but i just don't know anyone with experience with them.) i haven't had any real problems with my SPAL. Also, at least 35 lb solenoids.
eBay's gonna be definitely the cheapest place to get em, but still like $150. or, the companies in truckin or minitruckin magazine sell em. good luck; let me know if u need help with install or anything...peace

Thanks alot man, that helped alot. Say, would you also know where i could find a kit for the tailgate? I seen this one company a while ago, but i forgot their name. ne ways they sold a shave kit for the tail gate and it came with a motor for your tonneau cover. So at the push of a button the tonneau would open up and the tailgate would open down. Does anyone know what company makes products like this?

no problem, i know autoloc has a power lifter for the tonneau cover, but i've never heard anything about it. and the tailgate opener, i know what ur talking about, seen it before, i think even on TRUCKS on TNN;
...ok, u just got me lookin in a magazine and i found at least the company that makes both: it's Talegator (talegator.com) and it's a division of electric-life, so it should be good. The ad shows both the tailgate and the cover openers. definitely let me know how that turns out if u do it! looks cool; i'd think about it if i had the extra dough...peace

Thanks guys, i think i'm gunna do all of that plus i may try to suicide the doors if it ain't to hard. The kit is about 400$ though, but it would be worth it if they ain't to hard to install. Thanks again.

Message:
going to suicide doors isnt that hard if u know how to weld. I dont see why a suicide door kit would cost 400 bux when all you are doing is switching from one side to the other. Wouldnt suggest that a bigginer try suiciding the door himself, but if u take it to the shop its going to run you an a$s load of money.
