  • BACK SAVER
NO LONGER BACK BREAKING...I love this trailer tailgate lift assist kit. It is a true back saver. Easy installation and works like a charm. Can now close the trailer tailgate by myself whereas before, I had to use a chain and come along to do so because the tailgate ramp was so heavy. I highly recommend this product. I promise you WON'T BE SORRY for purchasing this product! ... show more

  • Gorilla Lift ! Must Have !
I had built a custom very heavy duty trailer not long after hurricane Ivan and due to a major shortage of any form of metal available at that time I decided to use a very strong 2inch square tubing . Very thick and heavy. I made the tailgate system also with this heavy duty framework and the estimated weight of the tailgate is approx 175 pounds if not more. I have dreaded having to use the ramp due to several herniated disks in my back and would always require someone to help me with raising and lowering the gate. I had seen this system on another trailer and liked the fact that it is very simple and particularly liked that it does not detract from the design of my custom trailer. I decided to purchase this and installed it immediately. I am a contractor and my work involves hauling many things and so needed a fairly heavy duty trailer. I can now lift my trailer gate up or down literally with one finger . I could not believe it at first just what a difference this system could make. I only wish I had known about this years ago ! It is a real life changer for me ! If you have back issues or wish to avoid serious injuries to your back this is no doubt the way to go ! It is priced very reasonably , very well constructed and took approx two hours to install . I must say you folks have done an excellent job by creating a tool that can really change lives in a very positive way ! I will be gladly recommending this system with those that I see in the work trade that still are struggling with the same burden as I had for so many years ! I can't say enough other than a big THANK YOU ! ... show more

  • Great product with a few modifications.
After installing the product lifting my trailer gate is so much easier. Couple of things I would change is where the lift cables attach to the gate itself it had 2 long bolts that attached the cable to the gate door with washers and lock nuts. I went to the hardware store and purchased 2 stainless 3/4 inch eye bolts with washers and nuts. Notched out the eye bolt just enough to get the cable attached using a vice and a hacksaw. Personally think it looks better and adds strength. Also had to end up replacing all of the carriage bolts because they were not long enough for my trailer. Replaced them with 5/16 in carriage bolts 4 inch long with proper washers and lock nuts. Little extra length on the bolts made it a lot easier to mount up. Mounted the gate lift on a round pipe trailer. After doing that it is a breeze to raise and lower my trailer gate now. Product needs to come with 2 - 2x2 square plug caps for the ends of the square tube when finished installing. Has some minor sharp edges that can be buffed out but needs end caps.I purchased some of those separately and popped them in the square tube. All said and done got everything mounted and it looks great and performs great. Makes my life a whole lot easier now. ... show more

  • Wonderful Addition to my trailer
I am so happy I made this purchase. Will save my back wear and tear for sure. While the instructions were ok they are a little vague. I like pictures so had to look up install video otherwise may have had to redue some steps. I hope they decide in the very near future to put 1” as well as 2 1/2” bolts in the assembly package. Trailers in general have wheel wells and frankly I can’t believe no one mentioned this in any reviews. Those areas take a much shorter bolt. Good thing I have a treasure chest of tools. I had a cutting wheel & Tap & Die set to rethread the bolt after cutting at 1”. This added about an hour + to my project. No biggie as I know it’s “Always” something so I planned the entire day thinking it would take me 2 - 2 1/2 hrs and actually took me a bit over 4 hrs. Honestly I only needed one of these installed. When I put the second one on it pulls the gate up. The product is made too well in that sense. Since I had it installed I just assembled it very slack. It’s littlerally no effort to open or close. A nudge and it about closes itself. No more moaning and groaning after a long day at work bending over that last time to lift that god awful 75lb floppy gate. Great product with only mention of the additional (8) 1”-1.5” bolts just to address any wheel wells that require a much shorter bolt as most people don’t just happen to have a Tap & Die kit & grinder with a diamond cutting blade laying around. Charge $15-$20 more to cover their costs and people won’t have to go to extremes or make a trip to ACE hardware. Well done Gorilla Incorp! ... show more

  • I love this product and would scream for all to purchase it.
Allow me to start with if I could give 10 Stars - I would While this is certainly more expensive than the other knock offs here on Amazon - I bought one and sent it back within a few hours it was junk and pulled the trigger on this one. The installation instructions are excellent - easy to follow and very easy to understand. Take your time and it will be flawless - I am very handy so this wasn't a tough install at all. The only thing I did was fabricate some additional angle iron on the lift gate to assure the bolt was beyond 2nd guessing when being used. The fit and finish is amazing Safety - lets talk that for a moment - when properly adjusted (this will take a few attempts to get correct) this unit is beyond excellent - it drops smoothly and slowly with total control and lifts the exact same way The rear lift on my new trailer I am told weighs about 200-250 lbs and while leverage is your friend this Lift system is your family. I literally bought my new trailer and within 12 hours was putting this on it, Yes I bought it PRE-DELIVERY of my trailer. Do not let the $$ amount sway you it is worth EVERY PENNY!!! ... show more

  • Makes lifting trailer gate effertless.
What an awesome addition to my trailer. The gate was like doing a power lift Everytime I closed it. My trailer is a heavy duty 10k with supports on the gate to load heavy equ7 and all and this thing still makes it possible to close it with literally one finger amazing. Best thing is all of the parts are available to purchase separately so I the future when things were out I'm not stuck with a useless metal tube mounted on the trailer. But it once buy it for the life of the trailer. I mounted mine custom. I welded on the lift tubes and bought some 1 3/4" x 1 3/4" square perforated plated steel tubing from Lowe's, welded that on the trailer gate and made my own studs to attach the cables to out of 1/2" rod that I threaded 2 1/2" and drilled at the end to accept a cotter pin (see pics). This way it's adjustable in the future when the springs start to naturally fatigue. I just move it up a hole to maintain the correct tension for the lift assist. I also have a few adjustments in the other direction. Cutting 100 lawns a week and literally having to open and close the gate over 200 times in 3-4 days this thing is a back saver. I love this thing. I took off one start though because it should come with an adjustable mounting option for the studs that go on the gate. That's kind of a crude way to mount it the way they say to do it (just drill a hole at the point where the tension is correct and forget about it) because you know the springs are going to lose some tension relatively quick and it's going to need to be adjusted. ... show more

  • Easier to raise and lower trailer tailgate.
The lift installation can be challenging for novice people who never operated a 1/2" drill and drill bit. The instructions were okay, but I found a video which helped with the installation. I recommend you lay out the side rails in the trailer prior to drilling any holes, as in my case the trailer's vertical braces interfered with two bolt holes, making it difficult to install the bolts and tighten them. Once the installation was complete, the lift performed well, no straining to lift the tailgate and letting it down was easier. I wish I had installed the Gorilla Lift years ago. I highly recommend this product. ... show more
