You should put another one of those shock mounts for the tail gate on the other side

Those things are a god sent, saved my 3 yr old from getting hit n the head , i open the gate and didn't know she was walking under and I was able to stop It just in time because it drops slow , if you don't have it get it , now the new trucks coming with those already installed
Dang that’s good they helped still love mine
Well I’m just having a Tailgate kinda weekend watching your vids Nick, Now I’m Plenty Jealous and absolutely Have to Have the Upgraded Tailgate and the Shock Absorber, On both sides… and I’m gonna have to get a weight bench too, lol. You’re an All Around Inspirational Guy for a 51 year old fella like me, Cheers from Florida! Keep on Rockin Brother, Excellent Job on your Vid’s !!
thats awsome yes those dang gates are very heavy im ordering this now and used your link to find my fit thanks a million
Nice Projects Man!! i see the videos of the silverado, the transit and this, and i like it!! Good luck! From Argentina!
thank you brother
Your project is awesome, and i like your videos 👍
Thank you bro
I have this on mine, love it.
I swear by the tailgate assist I have it on my F150 STX4x4 I love it
how long you had it? im wondering how long the shock will last, i might install 2 just in case one goes out and to put less stress on one shock, because these tail gates are crazy heavy
All the videos without commentary are the best. Do more of those.
thanks , once in a while i have to do vids like this, ill be doing more commentary vids because some things will need to be talked about and then once a project is finished then ill do a timelapse fast video, that way i do both worlds
This dudes OG for fixing cars or vehicles lol
Thx man
FixItNick yea bro u hve skills tht I wish I had lol an a lot more thn these big CZcams channels your channel is way underrated but one day you’ll get there keep doing you thing buddy👍🏽💪🏽✌🏽
Very nice. Thanks for sharing.
Will it slow down more if install one on each side?
Wow Nick. The second thing today that I'm buying directly from your link ! You should be getting a commission. A quick thought...might be a good idea to dry fit everything before you use thread lock, just say'n... Also, to all pick up drivers: a simple way to slow down thieves who would try to make off with your tailgate. A hose clamp around the slotted tailgate hinge (you know, the one that lets you take the tailgate off) will stop or at least slow down the quick grab kinda thief.
Damn it ! Just saw your video where you correct your two shock issue with the clamp. Never mind.
Thanks really appreciate it, yea the clamp is an easy fix and security
Wow 9K congrats nick , I thought the silverado series would have exploded with subs but ,maybe you should have a shed building channel ,Awesome Keep up the good work ! movie deals next ! LOL
Artie_61 he’s at 10k now yesterday he was at 8k!!
well i dont build sheds much haha, in fact this might be my 3rd and last shed, id rather work on cars, shed just got in the way of my car projects grrr!
like seriously i dont know whats going on, but ill take every bit i can and try to improve more channel best i can.
11k now ! Wonder what it was
Random question. I have the same truck but its a 250 7.3. Non dually. Can you make them into a dually? Is there some sort of kit? I really like the dually look
good job my friend!!!👏👏👏👏
Do they recommend you place one on each side of the tailgate?
Nice mod thanks I’m gonna do that to my truck.
you got it, what truck you got?
The video was 2 years ago. How the part working now, 2 years later ?
Cool idea!
Nice little Mod!
so far my fav lol, i might do 2 on each side for fun
I could not figure out what was going on with those rear wheels at first.
hahah work in progress
Have you ran a cylinder contribution test to check injectors? Also the pedestal on the turbos leak after awhile they make some good aftermarket options. The drain valve on the fuel bowl will leak too sometimes. It's just o rings cheap to fix if you have these issues. The ol 7.3l has it's issues but there easy as can be to work on.
Haven't done an tests no, just now starting to look into her now
When I installed my tail gate assist I couldn’t stop opening it
Hahah I know how you feel, I opened it 30 times already, with 2 shocks it's even more pleasing lol
I like your videos!
thx bro
FixItNick you welcome
Nice man .. 💪👊
thx bro
On the right side, put the second shock absorber and it will be even softer! Laik!
I did in another video :)
Hey man how are these 2 shocks holding? is the nutsert bending? I want to install them on my 06 f250 as well. thank you!
Everything is still good no issues 👍
@@FixItNick perfect! its probably because you installed 2. everytime i see a negative comment is because they installed only one
Hi Nick, new subscriber here, my question is how did you learn how to fix all these projects that your working on, i know your a driver for UPS is that correct, your a very knowledgeable person and a great one, thanks for your videos and keep them coming, also i see that you mostly like to work on trucks, in the near future would be working on cars as well. Thanks!
thank bro appreciate it, i started working on classic cars when i was 19 and it never stopped. I have rebuild a few 1967 mustangs, and actually after i do this F350 I have a 1967 mustang in the garage there waiting its turn. Ill be doing that one on the channel and then will be looking for a 2016-17 GT350 that i always wanted to rebuild and a Viper GTS as well
FixItNick thanks for your response, love old cars , chevelle ss mustangs. Pretty much everything . Etc.. Love to see your next project.
Бубух бубух посмеялся от души как будто холодильник закрываешь!!!!а лучше сравнить С нашей Ладой или Жигулями что бы ты не сделал все равно будет бубух=)))))))Мне нравиться твой настрой и подход так держать!!!!Молодец
Этот трак как танк висит лол
That’s cool thanks
you got it
Did you ever get the lock for the tail gate?
I did this. czcams.com/video/scsFf3czYbs/video.html
Love the video but wouldn’t it be good to put it on both sides? Or is it supposed to be just on one?
You’ve got to subtract the weight of the pole you used.
Still looks ridiculous without the fenders. And yes, I know that they are a work in progress.
haha its Mad Max style lol
I put one of these on my 7.3 F250 and it works great (and in less time than this video took... ha!) -- too bad the company that makes these doesn't make them for the Ford Ranger.
My second shock took 7 min lol .. you can make these work on any truck honestly
Thats cool
thx
What is the song at 5:50? Nice video thanks in advance
Inova - Isolation by FreeMusicWave
How much did you get the truck for
$5700
Nice
love it
Thx
FixItNick you ride dirt bikes
david rodgers I did in the past, will get one soon
FixItNick maybe next vid
👍👍👍👍
Does your Silverado have a tune to save gas
No, I'm not sure of a good one to get yet, was also thinking exhaust and intake maybe
FixItNick would that help with your gas truck?
yea i think so, but i have to look into it
FixItNick sounds good!! You should make a video when you do find out
They recommend just one?
VGAPR Garage It says you only need 1 on the package I'm pretty sure. Have had this on two of my trucks, never had any issues with just having 1 shock
year i think its enough
what trucks you had them on? i was thinking to maybe install 2 because the tailgate is so heavy to put less stress on the single one and just in case one goes out lol
FixItNick 2006 Dodge Ram and a 2009 Dodge Ram. The 06 tailgate was very heavy, 09 isn't bad.
I have an 05 F-350 and I installed two of them on the tailgate. At first just installed the one, but with the weight of the tailgate just felt one more was needed. Works awesome with two.
supeer 👍 👍 👍 👏 👏👏👏👏
thx brat
If you use a truck anything like a normal truck that little shock is going to get bashed all to hell. Save your cables because you're going to need to go back to them.
well im not sure it matters how you use the truck, the tailgate is always lowers and closes the same way and cables are still used for support, without them the door will hit the bumper
If you can't lift the tailgate on a truck, you need to turn in your man card.
Coolio
Thx
Nice ¡
Thx
Still a Chevy guy but it’s a nice truck
thx bro
I say it needs a stronger shock or duel shocks.
Goes down to fast
nah i think it goes down just fine, but i think ill do 2 shocks to have less stress on just one shock, slower lowering would be cooler i think
Can I get 1 please 😁
Yes I'm giving away 5 of them when hit 20k subs
Instate of this change your back left stop light
What do you mean?? Didn't I change it in the vid?? Lol
Augghh! The music. Couldn’t take it anymore. Don’t bother mentioning several times in the vid it’s a tailgate mod. We got that from the title. Condense your videos. Don’t waste 10 minutes of a viewer’s time for 2 minutes of info.
