Genuine GORILLA-LIFT 2-Sided Trailer Tailgate Lift Assist

I LOVE this kit! We installed it in less than an hour. Now dropping and lifting our trailer gate is no longer a 2 person event. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because the ends of the tubes dont come with any protection (caps). Upon purchasing and installing the assist, we realized that the springs and cables inside the rails will be exposed to rain and mud when hauling our Ranger. Back to Amazon to buy a set of end caps (they were only $7 but it would have been nice to have 2 in the kit).

This gorilla lift is something I should have done a long time ago.. very easy installation with instructions that are very easy to follow. I used it for my liftgate on my utility trailer and its so much easy just by using one hand and then putting my foot on it and then vice versa , no more strain or hurting my back.. I would very much recommend..

Fairly easy to install. Springs were much stronger than I thought they would be. I was worried our ramp would be a little to heavy, but it was plenty. We even had to tone it down to just 1 spring, because it was actually too much tension.

73 yrs old.lift it with two fingers

Great product, quality made. I’m 67 and I put this on a 16’ trailer with a heavy gate. I can now lift the gate with one finger. Has really saved my back.

This product is going to save my back over the years to come. I have a very heavy gate on my landscaping trailer and I put it up and down at least 20 times every day. Instead of having to do a squat maneuver to get my gate up, now I flip it up with my foot and the rest of the way I push-up with a finger tip. It is a game changer

I have trouble with lift springs being too strong to allow tailgate to drop down. I have extra heavy tailgate but springs keep it from dropping down past half way. Have to push completely to ground.

Works great

My end gate is home made, weighing about 250 pounds. This lift handles it with ease! Using a fish scale, the lift force is 11 pounds!!

All trailer manufacturers dont seem to turn the angle iron on the tailgate the same way so if you buy the lift handle you will have to adjust the instructions to fit your trailer. If using the extension rollers the instructions dont show which way to install the rivets or how far apart the roller extension and lift arm should be. An email to Gorilla lift solved both issues within 24 hours and I was able to complete installation the day after delivery.
