I have a similar product on my toilet seat. It has trained me to drop all toilet seats. So now when I am at a friends house, I slam the toilet seat down, and they're like dang bro take it easy.
dude... that cuts to the bone. Same. Im always slamming seats everywhere now. Im like a toilet pariah
LMFAO
Me too with the fancy slow toilet seats! So true!!
Yep. Love my cushion drop on the toilet seat.
LOL
Don't slam this guy so much. He's trying to show you something. I don't need one , but I appreciate what he is doing. I also have a Dodge Ram.
Well said...my 2020 Ram 1500 BUILT TO SERVE Edition came with this feature. and its great!!! The truck I had before this one didn’t and the tailgate would actually pop out of its slot sometimes when opening or closing too fast!!!
I bought and installed this a few years ago. It is SUPER easy to do. Kit came with everything needed. Took under an hour and it's an absolute MUST to have unless you plan on being a 20 year old stud your entire life. Tailgate gets HEAVY at 70 (-:. I push it up easily with one hand.
Not if you lift weights.
I just added this to my 19 Ram Classic and works great. For all you haters out there, most new trucks already have this option so turn your man cards in.
Looking for this comment! Thanks I just bought a 19 classic as well and I’m cool with the non assist but my kids like to open the tail gate and I’m afraid one day it’ll pop them on the head
I put a tailgate assist shock on my Silverado about 2 years ago and I absolutely have loved it. It has performed flawlessly to this day, a great mod I would recommend to any and every truck owner.
Best thing I’ve done yet! Can’t be more pleased
Any pavement queen you mean? Any one that needs this needs to go to the gym
@ The Ghost You've said that several times which means you have a genuine need to attempt to PROVE that you're a man because deep down you know you're a genuine loser. Trying to make friends here by jumping on the bash wagon? In reality you can't afford this gadget ,never mind the actual truck. LMFAO
Thank you for showing this. I bought a '03 Ram 2500 about 4 months ago and found the tailgate rather heavy (I am used to my old Ranger tailgate, and I am getting older and don't have the upper body strength I used to have to catch the gate as it comes down). I have seen this on internet sites and was considering it, but I think you sold me on it.
My neighbor can still open and close her tailgate with out on of these and she is 89 and disabled. Lazy much.
I bought this and installed it prior to watching your video. I can attest that it's an easy install and worth the $20. Now I don't have to worry about my 2 daughter's slamming the tailgate down when they open it. Great video!
or you could, stop small children from opening your tailgate using the lock , and stop asking them to get something out of your bed....and simply do it yourself.
@@colfrankslade That’s stupid. Why would he do that. What if they go camping and they need to get supplies or something. I also bought this to help my children and my wife so they’ll stop slamming my tailgate. 🤦🏻♂️
@@fuser4397 If you "need" your children(or women) to do something for you, then you're not responsible enough to go camping in the first place and should wait until your children are older and can take care of you and themselves.
Regardless of some of the rude comments ... I thank you for this video. I'm one of those weaklings, I guess, because I have trouble with the heavy tailgate on my Ram, but then, I'm old enough to be anyone who happens to be here, grandmother! I'm nearly 70, love my RAM (it's my 2nd one), ride a motorcycle (no, not a little Harley or little foreign bike.) and I'm a regular at the range (no, not golf!). Anyway, Ryan, thank you for this information, as I had no idea it was available.
Hey Ryan, thanks for the video. I am 67 & my wife is 66, this will come in handy!
You are welcome!!!! 🙂
People complaining this is a weak move are driving trucks worth less than his paint job 😂 cool stuff man
Yup, my truck probably did cost less than his paintjob. What's that got to do with how stupid this is? I guarantee there are people with expensive trucks that think this is stupid too. If people are so weak they can't lift a tailgate they don't need a pickup anyhow. If their kids are too stupid to stay out of the way of a tailgate that's just Darwin at work.
@@johnterpack3940 lol people can age you know and maybe it's hard for them to lower the gate. Kids should never be called stupid, they are kids. Have a goodnight
did the same install on my 2015 1500 a year or so ago........absolutely the best thing, period. i open/close my tailgate daily..works great.
I got this EZsstg a couple of years ago for my 2004 Ram, Still works great, I Love to freak out people at the market parking lot, I just open the tailgate and let it go and then it goes down smoothly
Great Video, I wish I could have cn your video back then.
Man people are so mean BUT thank you for this! I’ve broken so many nails opening my tailgate and having it slip when it’s wet (I live in MN so always rain or snow haha)
Ordered one today 😂
Lmfao, probably the same reason this tool just put it on. No more broken nails.
I put one on my ram about a year ago. Still going strong. I love it!
Put one on my 2012 Ram3500 in 2013 still works.
Got one on my 2017 Ram 1500. VERY EASY to install. Great instructions. Easy to read. MOST HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!
Great video. I don’t even need this product and still couldn’t stop watching. Never underestimate the value of the right color on a clean vehicle for video production.
Perfect add on for a lifted 4 x 4, Cummins Diesel that will never go off road or ever haul a trailer.
Brian Arnold so for a fake country boy, huh? Wants a tool for working, but instead frames it on the mantle?
Mopar_ Dude lol
I installed mine about the same time you did and I love it. This should be standard equipment!
Bs.
Did this with my pickup about a year ago. When my two sons saw this, they both installed them on their pickups. Good video.
Thanks Ryan. I just finish this on my 2018 RAM Rebel and it works perfectly!
Who else kind of respects this guy for not deleting the mean comments?
It’s cuz there true
had a trailer on my truck the other day, and i always have to make sure the tailgate doesn't hit the trailer jack. my girlfriend opened the tailgate when i wasn't by her, and she doesn't know about the jack scratching the tailgate. I have an assist on mine, and it drops slow enough that i caught it before it hit.
glad my wimpiness saved my tailgate from a dent and scratch!
I've installed it on 3 different trucks. Works fantastic.
I finally got around to getting/installing this product. There are a lot of other companies doing this, I just stayed with this model. All locktite comes pre-assembled to date. Overall, one of the easiest upgrades you can do.
My 2019 classic came with it, and lights in the box, love it
Hey, looks like good idea to me, keeps it from dropping down too fast when your hands are super cold or wet. Nice job on the video.
Thanks for the video, I need this in my life, just bought one for my 2012 Ram. Looking forward to installing it when it shows up.
That's a cool little mod. Handy for kids seniors or if you're hands are somewhat full with boxes, groceries, or a kid. I like it
I bought that like 3 months ago..but in canada is about 45$, good quality, 100% useful and 3 yrs warranty..i suggest that ! Nice video!!
Past 2 years I've had it on my cummins. Still going strong. Word of advice... wd 40 the ball joints at the tailgate and bed every now and then. You're welcome.
We 40 gets sticky over time. Use a silicone or aluminum based lubrication
Hello Ryan. Ya I know this is a bit late. Great video and excellent instruction on this install. You sold me and a buddy to buy this item to be installed on a 2015 and 2017 RAM 1500's. It's now 2021 and things have changed. Let me tell you what I experienced. With the DeeZee DZ43301 Tailgate Assist. No longer is the locktite provided because the ball mounts for the shock are preinstalled. You will need to remove & clean upper T45 mount and reinstall locktite, that you provide, because removing the lower mount is no longer required provided you bend back the lower limiter clip on the cable mount. Ensuring the very important step of measuring 3 1/2" from the top of the cable is crucial for the spacer install. The package comes with colored pictures and with very good instructions of what is needed to be done. Great job and any other person following this vidoe could be cOrNfUzEd. BIG THANKS!
Hmmm, I bought a used '17 Ram, 4x4, same green by the way, 2700 or so miles on it, last February 2019. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the tailgate slowly lowers just like in the video. I thought it was standard equipment, but I guess not. Thanks to the former owner for installing this handy gadget. (I'm 67, so I don't need a heavy tailgate.)
3:20 you're welcome.
This dude talks too damn much.
5 seconds in and I was searching for this comment. Thanks man.
lmdetect your awesome!!! Tbh your what makes the world a better place 1 comment at a time
Thank you!
Literally 3 mins in and I was like STFU
Thank you
To each their own. I work my trucks, 35 years of owning one without an assist has never phased me. My biggest concern with my tailgate is keeping it closed and opening it after heavy stuff gets dropped on it and throws the latch out of whack. He does have a pretty truck.
That's my thought exactly I work my trucks my tailgate not opening slowly never bothered me idk it bothered other people I mean whenever I open my tailgate I've never thought "oh i wish it opened slower" but I guess to each their own
Then why watch the video. If you trash your truck who cares. My work truck has it when you have shit in your hands you can grab it and let it go without slamming. Never had a problem with the shock.
@@Mike-jr1vw People love to hate on other people. They should have skipped right over this video because their opinion clearly doesn't matter.
@@Mike-jr1vw We watch because the titile of the video contains "everybody needs to know". Then as blue collars we get annoyed by those clean, useless trucks people who don't need a truck still buy. We never meant to see that so we're pissed ;)
For me, I have little kids around, and they want to help me whenever they can. They can get hurt when that handle is released and the weight crashes down.
$18 on Amazon. Works great, I love it. Thanks.
First thing I bought for my ram four years and I love it no slamming open anymore it’s a must I got mine for 20 bucks
Just installed mine today and it works great, thanks for the video Ryan!
You’re welcome!
I'm disabled and this thing is perfect for my truck. Thank you for posting this vid. I have two I have yet to install.
Thanks for the heads up! Just purchased my RAM about a month ago and I was discussing this with my wife, you tubed it and BAM THERE YOU WERE! THANK YOU! OBTW, I Subscribed
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I put this on my 2018 ram 2500, love it so easy to install, highly recommend
Based on experience, you might want to check the fittings every few months. Despite using the loc-tite when I installed mine about 18 months ago, the ball-stud backed out over time without me noticing it and one day I went to open my tailgate and the thing dropped when the stud pulled out. Nothing permanently damaged but I check the threads every month or so now just to be safe.
I had a 97 Ram and my 10 year old son got hurt so bad opening the tail gate that We ended in the hospital that day. It was bad.
Thanks for the tip.
He dont be long around a tailgate if it hurt him so bad he needed a doctor
if ur ten year old is too stupid to open a tailgate then im glad the nwo is gonna depopulate the world
@@robertjuker2681 haha that was a good one , that was good.
@@robertjuker2681 Lmao what a dumbass 10 year old. 5 IQ
I put super glue on the bottom side of the collar that meets the truck end gate hole, and let it set, that kept it from spinning. I put 1 drop, of 3 in 1 oil, on the balls of the bering to make it roll with the least amount of friction. I removed the special rotation control washer thing from behind the cable on the end gate side, and installed the same size stainless steel washer, so the cable end, would not scratch my paint where it mounts without the washer thing. Mine works great and I love it. If you guys like this go to Lowes and buy auto drop toilet seats for your home toilets. You just start them and leave them go and they go slowly down themselves. It's the same feeling as this truck gate tool. No more slamming.
Hey thanks for the video. Glad I ran across it. I just ordered it for my Chevy Avalanche. Lots of people must have ordered because it is not $20 anymore.
It's amazing how much negativity you can muster up on a small gadget.
The guy likes to modify the truck if you like it then do it to your truck. If you like the cables stick with the original parts. As long as my truck cranks and can pass inspection , I'm happy. Surely everyone on here takes a little pride in something you have.
Right you hit it right on the money 😂😂😂 it’s like if you don’t want it on your truck don’t put it on! If it can help you you’re welcome 😂😂😂 people crack me up man hahahah
Ryan Mayer oh I'm with you on that. People just enjoy drama I guess I don't know 😁
I have one on my truck but I hardly let my tailgate down lol. Throw the shit in the bed but when I do open it I won't be letting it drop because I forget it drops since its installed. Just makes removing the tailgate an extra step now. Throw a trailer on the hitch if I have to do all that now. But don't worry about the comments on here. Folks just want to say something because they'll never meet you in 3d
i like this mod myself and would like that for my wife's 2011 ram. i don't like the way the tailgate lowers so much on that truck, puts it too close to the bumper. the wight of the tailgate on any truck is never an issue although my 2001 ram tailgate it is heavy as shit.
Sissy.
If I had to wait that long for my tailgate to open I would go insane lol
says the guy that doesn’t own a truck 😂
@@timothydaly4136 not sure how you came to that conclusion... I'm on my 13th truck since my early days. You name it iv probably owned it. The soft close tailgates are nice but when your loading /unloading and in a hurry they get annoying lol
I have a 2018 Ram and that was the first thing I installed as my grandkids would allow the gate to slam down. What a gate strap saver. Mine is the DeeZee also. 😁😁😁 The only mod I did was to take a small hose clamp and put it around the shock and then take some needle nose pliers and curl the end of the excess and put a few layers of heat shrink on it to catch the cable.
I like this video. People will always talk about what others do, yet won't try and help others out. That's cool.Good video. Might have to check it out for my 2018 Ram 1500 4x4 Crew cab Express.
Just an FYI...You can leave the limiter on if you flatten down the rear tab. It will stop the metal end of the strap from rubbing the paint off the side of the tailgate and not interfere with the strap function.
What’s a limiter? What’s a strap?
"I'm usually torquing bolts 220, stuff like that..." - Riiiiiiiiiight.
Thanks for the video.
Great one for enthusiasts to know!
This hack/mod was one of the first
Hole I drilled into my New Ford Ranger.'19
That is bad ass I will definitely be doing this mod to my 2500 Ram for sure ... $20 well worth it .
I put this on my 03 Ram about 2yrs ago and I love it 👍🏽
Yes! I shoulda put it on my 06 when I had it not sure why they fall so fast! They shoulda fixed that long ago!
And you're proud how? Please explain.. I mean u really don't have to. Dont want to hurt your feelings..
the following document and let me know
Same it’s a 03 the truck is still looking new just my dad got into a crash and really got one side of the front tires slightly Tilted but it’s still on a normal height am going. To lift it 5 lift kit soon and might add this little feature have some bad mf tail and front lights on the 03 just got a led bar lights for the truck 😎 right now it’s a blue color am changing it to a Carmel color I like the color not dark by in between looks pretty sweet with the color😫 and if anyone knows about bass lmk down the comments what brand are best and when I turn the volume I want my shirt flying from the bass🙏🏽👌 and soon or later I we’ll install a train horn 🙏🏽🤟🏽 few months and I’ll get my license🤟🏽
Yep,the tailgate on my 03 Ram is three times heavier than my 2014 Chevy. Had this thing for over a year in my toolbox. Putting it on today.
you had to wait for a nice day so you could film this in your garage?
LOL No shit.
ya know, when the weather is bad it's hard to get up and make a video.
nvisibledeath Hahahaha lol
A "Real" car or truck guy would install no matter the weather... This is an Assist not a Hack, oh and Dude... I installed this back in 2003 on my 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 Quad Cab Laramie (Hemi) and that tailgate was twice as heavy. Would have broken your hand trying to operate it... Just Saying!!
@TimothyReidUpNorth907 lime green I could understand a dark green but lime...
Thanks. Great video. Just remember cable bushing is 3 1/2" down from the loop.
You're lucky. Your tailgate is the light one. Mine is all steel and weights about 80 lbs. I added one to my truck a few years ago. Best mod I've ever done to the truck.
I also used one to make a slow opener for a TV I have mounted to the ceiling of an outdoor structure at my beach house. works awesome.
I've had this on my last 3 Rams. It takes the awkwardness out of opening the tailgate. Your video simplified how to install it. The directions it comes with are confusing. Thanks for the vid!
Very confusing instructions I thought aswell 😂😂😂
Takes the balls out of using a tailgate that's for sure.
Pavement princess addtions.
Devo solt The porduct is designed for people who have to do other things while trying to open the truck bed. Instead of dropping the gate every time. Which will break it faster. So enjoy your tailgate white you still can.
@@m3rkinfiniteofwgkta we get it you like attention miss copyandpast.
Or for the work truck your 75 year old father drives. Be less of an ass, you'll make more friends.
Lol CEO of not knowing what a pavement princess is
Wish I could do this on my cruck. I have a 2019 Honda Ridgeline (hence the word "cruck"). Tailgate opens like a regular tailgate but also swings open like a door allowing easier access to the 7+ cubic foot trunk.
Bought a bigger boat and didn't want to buy a 2500 just to tow it so I leave the boat on a lift at the lake and downsized to a Ridgeline. Love it so far.
$26 Well worth it! Just installed on my 2006 ram 3500 megacab.... works great.....
that's perfect for when your purse in one hand and you need to open the tailgate with the other hand.
And not want to spill your Starbucks Frappuccino...
😂😂😂
you can't open your tailgate with one hand? that's more interesting to me than if he had purse..
Actually laughed at this one.
Leo Tech they are called man satchels! Please be a little more politically correct next time! Lol
i don't think this makes you girly.... I got this for my Ram because my nieces and nephews like to climb in the back and after they would open the tail gait they would have to duck and dodge the drop. i knew one day it would hit someone on the head and that tailgate is heavy enough to mess up someone's neck or spine if hitting them right.. so I got it for their safety.
Same here. The tailgate latch on my 2019 RAM is basically an electronic button so it's super easy to press. It's the one thing I really dislike about the truck. I prefer mechanical latches. But anyway, it's so easy to press my four year old can reach up and open the tailgate. It only took one time of me leaping over to grab the tailgate before it smacked him in the head to decide to add dampeners. Luckily on the 2019, I can buy the OEM dampener that installs completely hidden behind the tail light.
You're a thoughtful person man good on you🤙
This piston is awesome , i got it from like a yr or so.. only bad thing is in winter in Canada here gets really cold and so the piston takes forever to open completely, most of the time i just push on it using my body as leverage..cool video as usual !
Did it to mine a year ago. Absolutely love it.
Does this kit come with a purse holder also? Or tampons?
6 actually
No. Just a map of mall parking lots
This literally made me LOL!
J Money - where do you put your tampons?
Yet you are still here watching ?
If you haven't already, I recommend getting one of those torsion bar gate assists also. I've had them on my '08 Ram Megacab since about a week after I picked it up and my wife and son have appreciated it immensely.
Just picked a RAM 2500 not too long ago so this project is up next on the agenda! Good instructions bro!
Now you need the remote key fob release.
Dam you got some haters on here, I like the mods you do, thanks for the tip, I like this ideal and just ordered one. Keep doing what your doing man
Did this to my RAM, can confirm it's totally worth it.
Great Video man! I put one on my truck and love it. Keep the videos coming!
Love all the people talking shit over what a stranger decides to put on their truck. It makes the tailgate much easier to use for children, older people, women, injured or handicapped people, etc. And it’s a nice feature to show off if you ever decide to sell the truck down the road. There really is no downside to adding it.
I know! I find it hilarious 😂😂😂😂
You misspelled "for pussys and weak people"
alpha 1997 what the fuck is your deal? Why do you care so much about what is put on other vehicles? I’d put this on my truck so it’s easier for my girl or my kid. Just because you do not like it, does not mean it makes anyone a pussy or a homo.
Oh I'm a millenial and my tailgate is too heavy
CANNON BUILDER
Thats offensive!
splash thanks it was intended to be offensive. Do you need a safe place? Too bad mom's dont have pouches like kangaroos because millenials would never leave the pouch. Then the rest of us wouldn't need to see them.

Hahaha
I was joking along with ya bud!
Totally agree!

59 year old female here. Thanks for this mod demo. I'll be adding this to my truck!
well people say whay you will but thats a nice little upgrade, i like it, simple and effective, i have a escalade ext and caddy didnt even have that on mine so this is rite up my ally i want to install this on mine , thanks for the video!
Rumor has it this guy still waiting for the weather to clear up to shoot the sequel. " Hacking the blinker fluid"
Works better than the one my truck came with originally
That’s what I found too! The stock ones still fall fast!
I have neuropathy in my arms and hands and sometime when trying to load my bed I do not want the tailgate to lower to quickly. This looks like an ideal help. I have to watch out when lowering the tailgate when towing the trailer.
Thanks for making a link I have a 1997 Ford F-250 and I work on a ranch and have to load generators up with no help so this made it a lot easier
But I like dropping tailgates, it gets me hard and allows me to compensate to feel manlier! I also enjoy having extra danger hazards because I heard girls find danger to be masculine and I need everyone to know I am the ALPHA.
Even though the shock installed only prevents dropping and still requires the same amount of strength to lift it back up, I like hearing the sound of it slamming against my bumper just like I drop my weights at the gym to assert my dominance.
Alan Lee I think most girls would consider you an over compensating jerk
Thanks for this both my Rams gate go slamming down everytime it is so annoying! New or not 2017 and 2013 both go crashing down so this is a must
I know! You’d think they’d fix that by now!!😂😂😂
Knoxz no. Hitting the gym, is obviously a must. If you cant handle a 2018 tailgate, I wouldn't let you anywhere near a classic truck...
Mark C I do construction and go to the gym lol but considering the prices on the trucks and with new technology around you’d think they would fix this
Knoxz look at your tailgate. Almost all of them should be held by two heavy lines on the sides or metal pieces like the early 90s s10. It doesn't slam on the bumper and it isn't going to snap those heavy duty lines. Again. Why do you have so many issues with dropping your tailgate? I've driven trucks since highschool and have yet to even once, drop my tailgate, when lowering it. It's just not an issue. It is a luxury to have rubber pieces on your bumper maybe, or have a hydraulic device, but it isn't worth it, to be a standard feature...
Knoxz they dont need to fix it u fucking tard lol ...the cables stop it from hitting ....its just a tailgate ,letting it slam down isnt hurting anything...all this fixes is the noise it makes and if thats a big deal then maybe u should consider a gender change.
Great tailgate mod! I'm gonna try it! Just subscribed, will be looking for tips.
PS: your absolutely correct about those mirrors, moved up from my beautiful 1500 to this beast 2500, mirrors down is a problem, turning them up tomorrow.
I'll be binge watching your videos. Later!
4:02 I just love how he grabs a speed wrench and doesn't use the speed side... LMFAO!!!
I noticed that too
You know if I had a nice new truck then maybe I'd do this. But I've got a 98 Ram 12v and it's missing the clear coat as is. I also would get annoyed with this mod. When I open my tailgate I like things to get done fast. I would get impatient and start pushing it down to open it faster. Which would be more work.
Syre XI just take your tailgate off, never worry about it again..
@@dundonrl Got mine repaired, dents removed, racing decals, nerf bars. $1700. Looks trick. 20in wheels off 2005. Tough-looking used tires. 1.5 lft in front. New headlight covers, dash cover, little at time. New truck $500 600 month with payment and insurance. NO TRUCK PAYMENT, spend a little money.
I will be installing this on my ram. Every person that has ever opened my tail gate just drops it... like every person on earth forgot how to open a tail gate.
That was my first thought, like when did people start just letting it drop on it’s own.
Did this on my Ram and my Denali pickup. They are awesome. Should be factory on every truck!!
I believe, depending on the year of the truck, there is a lowering dampener built in just below the rear tail light. Passenger side for 2019 and newer an I believe 2014 to 2018 is on the drivers side. Laramie and limited the dampening shock is installed but all other models don’t have the dampening shock installed but the hardware to hook it up is there, just have to install the dampening shock which is an item easily available from Ram. Take the the tail light out and you’ll see the hardware. Snap the shock on the 2 ends of the hardware and your set up with factory tailgate dampener. I just ordered mine for a 2022.
Personally I'm not a fan of the slow drop when I want my tail gate down I want it down now not wait
That just means you are not a homosexual like the guy who made the video
I dont like slamming anything on a vehicle, that's how shit gets broken.
@@dundonrl shit brakes no matter what lol
I guess you could drink a beer while you wait for it to drop.
That's about the only positive I see here.
Brakes or breaks?

But hey to each their own....just dont let me get a hold of it cuz I wont hesitate to haul some hay to my cows up thru the mud&manure covered field then back down across the creek to my food plot check on it then drive home and....nothing. It stays dirty til in the morning when I go deer hunting and bloody up the bed with the carcass of a large whitetail buck. And OMG....prolly won't wash the bed out til it rains....but hey, that's just me.
your a dick
I was wondering why you would need to install such an item on a tailgate, then I saw how you struggled putting the cable spacer and strut on and all of my questions were answered!!!
Damn that's sick. Thanks for posting that link, looks like it bumped up to $30...worth it
What purpose does this serve? Genuinely curious, thanks!
So the tailgate doesn’t slam! But if you love it slammin, slam away!
You see, historically, people who owned and used pickup trucks had to extend their bicep muscle if they wanted to prevent the tailgate from slamming down. This device eliminates all that nasty effort.
It also makes it easier to open while holding something heavy, but you know, why not just be an asshole to a RUclipsr instead. I guess the RUclips truck fashionistas/police are out.
See i see this useful with a kid my son has gotten hit in the head trying to help dad ! Is this for everyone no but i can see its use .....
Tailgates are so heavy. I've always wondered what I could do to pussify a truck. I am skinny pale nervous weak and rundown... I can still open a standard tailgate. What's your excuse?
crispyspa he can afford one? You fucking hater.
Tulia I could afford a hundred of them... I see them as useless.
crispyspa you mean he didn’t ask for your permission to buy/install this part??? How dare he?
My latch system doesn't always work. My gate has fallen on me twice before. At least with this, it won't sound like someone rammed into me. And as an older guy, I welcome the assist.
I wanted to say something mean but I've done my damage on this "dont ask dont tell kit"
Nice Job; I like watching other people do it first, it really helps me out. 😎
I have no patience or time for a slow assist on the tailgate. But cool to know that it’s available.
Want an even better tailgate hack? Install an actuator that will open and close the tailgate automatically with the push of a button.
