FAQ

Q: Does this make the tailgate open automatically? 

A: No. The system does not automatically open the tailgate — it slows and controls the tailgate’s descent once released.

Q: Is drilling required for installation? 

A: No. This is a bolt-on system that installs using existing factory mounting locations. Driver’s side installation recommended.

Q: Why do I need a tailgate assist on a Super Duty truck? 

A: Super Duty tailgates are heavier than standard truck tailgates. A tailgate assist helps reduce sudden drops, making operation safer and more convenient while helping reduce wear on factory components.

Q: Is one shock enough to support the tailgate? 

A: Yes. This system is engineered specifically for the factory Super Duty tailgate and is designed to provide controlled lowering with a single shock installation.
