  • Good hydrolic
Easy install and works as it should, great product I haven't had any issues. Just make sure you put the rubber padding down where metal rubs together.

  • 5-star Customer Service
I don’t do many reviews, but this product and company is great. For the price, and ease of installation, it’s worth it. I did have a slight issue where the shock retaining clip seems ‘sloppy’.. so I contacted the company directly in hopes that I could get a replacement clip. They responded promptly and offered to send a whole new shock! Within 1-2 days it was resolved and a new shock is on its way. Very happy customer. ... show more

  • Seller had quality control issues apparently.
Have ordered 2 of these now. Instructions verify that the kit covers a 2016 Ram 1500. Both sets of instructions in the two kits state there is a ‘Part D - Ball Mount’. Picture shows the part. The online video shows the part. The parts are not there. Kits can not be used. The picture on the listing does NOT show the part. Hope the seller figures this out. ... show more

  • !! Best old timers club product !!
First off, quality is there and is amazing to have. Fit perfectly on my truck and added zero noise when putting the tailgate down and insane comfort to my ears. The installation is super simple once you read the instructions or watch a simple video on YouTube of about 4 minutes. To add to that it actually made the tailgate look nicer too having extra accessories. I’m very happy with this purchase. ... show more

  • Easy install.
Installed in minutes replacing a broken one. Super simple. I’m not sure how durable this one is but it’s been two weeks and it’s working just fine.
