I don’t even own the type of vehicle that you do but I still watch your video because I love your detailed installs 👍🏻
Thanks for the support Jon! I really appreciate it.
This vid is so helpful thanks for explaining it through and through.rlly awesome
Best video I have seen on this so far been waiting to put mine on thanks this will be helpful the nutsert seems tricky
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video explaining it! Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for this video I'm going to order one for my son's truck
Glad to help! Good luck on your install for your sons truck! The one I have is still going strong almost 3 years later.
Now they need to create one to help lift the tailgate to close! Lol.
Most manufacturers after adding them from the factory now. An aftermarket option would be nice for older trucks though.
Several months later, this damper is still working fine! Part number for this is DZ43102
Buy it Here: amzn.to/3qi0LIs
Your link is for a ford
Hmm. They must have updated the listings. That happens sometimes and then my links get whacky. Search the part number and you’ll find the right one, or try this link.

How has it been holding up? Also the link you have for it on amazon it says its for a f150. Will it fit my 2014 sierra?
Still working great. Yea it appears my link is not pulling up the correct one anymore. But the part number listed in the description is the one for 2014-2018 Silverado. DZ43102.
order to fit specific model
If I put one of these on each side of the tailgate will it increase horsepower?
Ha. Funny. It actually switches you to be all electric. So you only need to use diesel fuel and you never have to change your hydraulic fluid ever again. /s
I bought the same one and it did a great job, until the shock snapped. Does anyone know the size of the shock?
Dang sorry to hear that. How long did you have it on your truck? Mine is still going strong after a few years.
@@fondupot about 3 to 5 months, hoping to find the size of the of the shock just replace it and I don't buy the whole kit again
Reach out to Deezee. There’s has to be some kind of warranty. Maybe they can send you a new one for free.
Any plans for additional Colorado videos?
xblindfolded definitely. I still have the Colorado.
@@fondupot awesome. Look forward to them.
Wish Dee Zee had a kit for the Colorado.
They do! Part # DZ43105. Here is a link to purchase on Amazon.

@@fondupot Just bought it . . . thanks a bunch!!!
Glad to help!
Does it also assist with closing the tailgate?
Unfortunately, no. Same effort requires to close the tailgate.
@@fondupot Dang, thought that might be the case. 😕 thanks for you reply, though.
Glad to help. Thanks for watching
How do you pull the shock apart?
By hand. It’s not very hard.
@@fondupot could you show me . I cant figure it out
What exactly are you trying to do?
@@fondupot extend the shock, so It can reach the tailgate and the bed.
Use your muscles and pull it apart.
Can i put 1 on each side?
No need. The one shock does it all just fine. Mine is still going strong, 3 years later.
@@fondupot ok thanks
