ARANATailgate Assist for 2017-2025 F250 F350 Super Duty, Slow Drop Tailgate Shock Damper Strut Accessories for Ford F-250 F-350 F-450 Super Duty XL XLT LARIAT King Ranch Platinum Limited

Easy install, all tool included. Although try screw driver provided to pry the bed gate retention cable was a Phillips instead of a regular all tools worked and the installation took about 15 minutes. Thrilled the bed no longer makes a loud bang if I have to drop it with hands full. All the parts are robust and finished well. Confident in good service from them. This install was on a 2025 Lariat Maverick and the drivers side bottle opened had to be removed to install. It is a star bolt that is not included in the tools so be aware that is needed. Comes in a variety of driver bit combinations at a home center.

I bought this to add to my F150. It was easy to install and it works perfectly. A previous truck already had a tailgate assist and I was so used to it being there. When I bought this truck I just let go of the tailgate and it slammed down, There was no way that I could be retrained, so I bought this and it is excellent.It is well made and worth the money.

This shock is a solid product. It is relatively easy to install. I found the supplied T50 installation tool to be too short to deliver the necessary torque safely. So, to avoid potentially stripping the original bolt, I used a T50 bit with a 3/8" breaker bar. The shock works well. 5 Stars!

It works…sort ofI bought this based on the reviews here. It does seem to be good quality with good material. It does have some heft to it based on the materials used. Installing was easy. The price was just right.My biggest complaint and why im giving 3 stars is that it came loose after about 2 months of use. I thought it would hold longer. I screwed it back in and waiting to see if it’ll come loose again. Other wise a good buy.

Everything was there on time. Everything appears to be good quality. Parts all fit. Took about 15 minutes to install... Most of that time was me trying to find my 10 mm socket lol. It functions wonderfully. I would recommend to a friend.

Very easy to install but had to use some of my own tools as the supplied wrenches would not get the job done. I will say, it was all on the vehicle and not part of the actual part.

Yes, prefect fit. The wrench provided is undersized so it's better if you have the T50 with a 3/8 ratchet. Installation is quick and yes you need to remove the bottle open on the Maverick.

Install took about 15 minutes. My truck has (had) a tie down points that overhung the side of the tailgate. 1 had to be removed because it wouldn't clear the newly installed strut. Otherwise, the directions were pretty easy and it works great, preventing the heavy tailgate from slamming down or depending on the user to hold and guide it.
