    I'm so glad you made this video. I'm thinking of putting the lift assist on my Maverick and this is so helpful. Thanks.

    I appreciate the video. I'll definitely be buying one of these ONE DAY when my Maverick is actually built! Subscribed!

    Those clips are made to just push on. You don't have to use a screwdriver to move them unless you are removing the strut.

    That's a drop cylinder, to slow down the tailgate.

    I drive a 04 Dodge truck, it has a heavy tail gate. I need to install one of those. God Bless you and your Husband 🙏

    Great video. I'm thinking about making one on my maverick hybrid too. I kinda like this shock assist.

    I never thought much about that until I had to kind of wrestle a bike and the tailgate, and you're right, it's a bit too heavy for one hand.

    i have one on my 03 silverado
    really great, especially for older trucks with heavier chunk of metal for a tailgate.

      It's held up great for a year and half so far.
      I've had to shoot a bit of WD40 every few months, especially since it gets wet from washing/rain.
      still going strong - i love how easy it was to install.
      Great video, betty! hope you never stop uploading. You're so cool 😀

      I have an o8 Sierra and that tailgate is Heavy! Now that you mention it I think I’ll see if I can find one for it 😊

    Great video editing. Superb camera work and good directions and pace. But, I gotta ask..did you think it would help assist it go up?

      Believe it or not it does help, because it dampens the drop-you are not fighting against that when you lift the tailgate. Of course it won’t go up by itself but I feel it is easier to close now. Thank you for your comment 😊
