Customers say
Customers find the tailgate assist works well, is easy to install, and offers good value for money. The build quality and fit receive mixed feedback – while some say it’s solid enough to last and fits perfectly, others report it breaking within two weeks and not fitting certain models like the 2015 F250. The slam down feature and ease of opening also get mixed reviews, with some saying it prevents slamming while others note it doesn’t slow down the rate of drop, and some finding it easy to open while others report it’s hard to close. The shock strength receives negative feedback, with customers describing it as low quality and too strong for the bracket.
