Engineered as direct-fit replacements for part numbers 68054996AA and 68054997AB, the components are built for durability and to match factory fit and function on compatible model years. Installation requires a T50 Torx screwdriver and basic mechanical familiarity. Note: these parts are intended for DS bed configurations only and must not be used on DJ or DT trucks where bed extender placement can obstruct tail lamp visibility on some later models.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWill this kit fit my RAM truck model?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCheck compatibility carefully before ordering to avoid installation issues.

You will need a T50 Torx screwdriver to remove the old hardware and secure the new handle and grommet into place.

Fitting this kit to a DJ or DT model manufactured in or after 2019 may create a lighting obstruction, which is why it’s explicitly not recommended for those configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDo not install on DJ or DT bed extenders if it obstructs tail lamps\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVerify your truck’s bed configuration (DS vs DJ\/DT) before purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIf unsure, consult a dealer or measure for potential lamp obstruction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInstallation that causes lamp obstruction could violate local vehicle rules\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho this is for: this ALTBET replacement kit is aimed at RAM owners who need to replace broken or worn bed divider handles and pivot grommets on compatible DS-configured trucks. It suits DIY mechanics, fleet maintenance teams, and anyone wanting to restore proper function to a RAM 1500 Classic (2009–2019) or RAM 2500\/3500 (2012–2018) bed divider. If your vehicle is a DJ or DT configuration or a post-2019 model with a bed extender that may block tail lamps, choose a different solution or consult a professional before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Does this kit fit my 2019 RAM 1500?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: It fits 2009–2019 RAM 1500 Classic models but not DJ\/DT bed extender configurations that might block tail lamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What tools are required for installation?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: A T50 Torx screwdriver is required; installation typically takes 15–30 minutes for a DIYer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"ALTBET","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48085526610078,"sku":"B08YJBXH3P","price":39.48,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0781\/2041\/9486\/files\/altbet-front-packaging-kit.jpg?v=1785871584","url":"https:\/\/northtrailauto.ca\/products\/altbet-box-handle-and-grommet-kit-for-ram-1500-2500-3500-2-handle-2-grommet-direct-fit-t50-torx","provider":"North Trail Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
