Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Do I need one or two lift assist springs for my tailgate? A: It depends on the gate weight and the mounting points on your trailer. This listing covers the right-hand unit, so check whether your setup uses a single spring or a matched pair before ordering.

Q: Will this spring fit a tailgate that never had lift assist hardware? A: Universal mounting means it can often be added, but the gate and frame need suitable attachment points for the spring ends. Compare the mounting locations and spring length against your trailer before purchase.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
