Amazing service
Super easy to install and the product works great. More importantly the customer service is wonderful. My strut broke 4 months after I purchased it, through no fault of its own, and I planned on purchasing another kit. I noticed the warranty said 1 year so I thought I’ll reach out and see. I sent 1 email with my order invoice, and a picture of the broken shock. They never asked what happened just for my shipping info and promptly sent me a whole kit, not just the broke strut.

Just ok
The installation bolt and nut are very cheap and stripped almost immediately. Couldn't finish installation properly. Edit: Contacted company. They sent me a replacement unit. Installation was perfect this time and product works great

Lowers the tailgate as it should!
Had this same one for over 3 years. I don't let my tailgate down everyday but I do use it quiet a bit and it eventually broke. Easy installation works very well. For the money and what it does, definitely recommend.

Great fit and easy to install.
A very easy installation. Seems to work great so far we will see how it does this winter once the temperature drops.The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of the time on the truck so far.

LLEGO INCOMPLETO , FALTO EL ESPACIADOR QUE SE INSERTA EN LA BOTELLA DE AGUA.
Escribi perfectamente que la pieza es para una GMC 2013 y en la descripcion dice que es para 2013 entre otros modelos de ano pero no le quedo , ya no quiero regresarla porque es mucho lio andar en paqueterias y no se si se va a regresar el dinero.

Great customer service
Great product! No more tailgate slamming me in the arm! I initially installed the unit on the wrong side of the tailgate. Couldn't get one of the nuts out of the tailgate though to rectify the problem. I contacted the company to get another nut. They couldn't supply one as they are all packaged units so they sent me a whole new unit! Beyond grateful for the great customer service. Thank you

Good product.
Does what it’s supposed to do, one piece was harder to install than the others but eventually got it figured out.
