> 3 dayI really like the gorilla lift, it makes raising and lowering the tailgate a 1 finger operation. I had to modify it because it is a Brimar trailer with uprights where the puppy end should be. I took 5/4 x6 pressure decking and attached it to the top rail then attached the gorilla lift on the outside edge of the decking. Not a piece of art but very functional.

Greater than one weekWorks as described. I was able to adjust the amount of assist to the tailgate can be lifted with 1 finger. Do note that many trailers have a locking pin or latch that may interfere with the cable. I had to cut my original latch off of my trailer and devise another way to secure the tailgate. But I have something wrong with my back and it was worth it. A friend of mine installed a set on his trailer a few days before me and he also had to modify his latch setup. He also ran into a little issue with one of the mounting bolts of the lift coming out directly into the edge of one of the vertical angle arm sections of the trailer. The problems I ran into are possible on many trailers, but the design of the Gorilla Lift was not at fault. It looks like it will last a long time and the yellow tubes are power coated inside and out so it shouldnt rustsoon like the trailer probably will. Im glad I bought it and installed it. If you cant accurately locate and drill 10 1/2 holes, have someone do this for you who can. Youll be happy when youre done. See my photos of a trailer that has a latch thats in the way. Then see the photo with the cable extended and you can see where to watch for a problem.

Greater than one weekI 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.

> 3 dayVery easy to install and use. Im 66 so it was getting pretty hard for me to raise and lower my trailers talegate. After I installed it I can let it down or rise it up with just my finger !
