Genuine GORILLA-LIFT 2-Sided Trailer Tailgate Lift Assist

Overall works good with tailgate on my trailer.

Best purchase Ive ever made for my husband, he can lift the double gate with just two fingers. Most every time he takes brush to the recycle he gets comments on it, once someone tries it, they want one. :-)

it went well, I cost me some time by not looking at things carefully before starting. I did have to add another hole in their product as my trailer had a section of box tubing running vertically at the end (where they had a bolt going)

I have a 5x10 trailer and the gate was getting heavy while out mowing all day. Because of my trailer set up I only installed one side (driver side) and it is awesome. I can lift it with my foot and dont have to bend over anymore. Great product and a huge back saver.

THEY WORK AS STATED ONCE YOU FIGURE OUT A FINAL ADJUSTMENT ON PRESSURE THEY NEED SLIGHTLY LOOSE SO THE GATE STAYS DOWN.. OR THEY WILL LIFT THE GATE ON THEIR OWN..

Saw this on another trailer and thought it would be a great idea for my trailer. I had some work done on the lift gate on my dual axle trailer that I tote a Kubota buggy on for work. My lift gate was getting bowed from the buggy so I had it reinforced which made it barely lift-able with one person. My back was being strained and I am in pretty good shape. I read the reviews on google and Amazon before purchasing and read some mixed reviews about how it worked fairly well but that it was difficult to install. Watched a You-Tube video about installation (which for me is easier than reading instructions), purchased and set out to install it. First of all, installation is time consuming...a few hours if you know how to use the necessary tools and are fairly handy with them. My trailer has a little thicker metal so used smaller to bigger titanium bits to get it done easier. The installation of the bolts after drilling is a little tricky but do-able. Did one side for now, which has made a huge difference and it works well so will probably do the other soon.

Exactly what we needed

Easy install,well constructed

My trailer gate was very heavy and hard for me to lift. I decided to get the gorilla lift to save my back. It was easy to install and works great! No more strained back!

This is an awesome piece of equipment! I recently had a close call with my trailer gate almost slipping out of my greasy hands with my feet directly below and in the line of fire. Had the gate slipped out of my hands, both feet would have broken or worse damage by this 200lb. gate! This gate assist is a back saver and as well as a must have safety devise. Following instructions is an easy install. Recommend a good sharpe metal drill bit. Encountered an issue with a bolt hole inline with a fender well; but resolved it with a shorter bolt from local hardware store. Only would ask seller to throw in shorter bolts also for us trailer owners with angle iron rails as I now need to cut off excess bolts used. Paying a few dollars more for eight more bolts is worth the hassle of now having to cut the bolt excess off. Simply fantastic product for the price! If you don’t have a set, get one!!! You won’t be sorry!
