Recommended kit!

Very nice kit! Fit my 2017 ram 1500 perfectly. Came with everything needed for install including plastic paint protection for the tighter clearances on the paint. Took about 20 min for installation and it works great!

Great tailgate strut. Easy Install

This tailgate strut was very easy to install and comes with everything except all the tools. You will need a 10mm wrench and a alan key, no biggie. Operates as intended. Would recommend this for all trucks. Thickness is perfect. Looks great.

Impressed

Wasn’t really sure how it would work but now my tailgate goes down smooth and slow and goes up easily very easy to install looks good functions as should. Love it.

Nice touch

Install was ok. Had issues with the bolt that goes on the tailgate. Battled it till I won. I like the way the tailgate slowly drops vs the rapid drop. Nice touch

Don’t waste your time or money!!!

We bought this product for the tailgate of our 2016 Dodge Ram and a month and a half after installation it already does not work! Sent the manufacturer an email requesting a replacement but never heard back from them. We will look for a new one from a different seller as this product is garbage!! Don’t waste your money for something that will last a month and we wonky open our tailgate about 4 times a week when we go to the store and Come home so if your needed to open every day this definitely won’t last! We are also super careful to never let it just “fall” but this still broke!

It works great

Easy to install. Works pretty good. The instructions are not the best but it’s easy enough to figure out. Definitely recommend if you don’t want people dropping your tailgate. For the price it’s worth it. I’ve wasted more on less.
