  • A must have for people with kids!,,,

    The main reason I purchased this kit is because I watched my 7 year old open the gate to my truck and almost knock out my 4 year old daughter. Thank goodness the gate missed her. My truck is a 2013 Chevy Avalanche a and this kit worked perfectly. Easy install, 5 minutes tops and function just like it said it would. I’m very happy with the purchase and performance of the product, highly recommend it. Plus it’s nice to know if the gate slips out of my hold it won’t go slamming down, it just glide to the full open position. The hydraulic strut does not interfere with shutting of the gate, very easy.

  • Tailgate assist - great addition

    Very easy to install, useful, inexpensive, and works excellent! It's a must have to prevent the tailgate from slamming open whether your hands are full, don't have a good grip, opening the tailgate from an awkward position, or whatever the case may be. I would recommend this product to anyone with a pickup who uses the bed regularly!

  • great product

    I bought this for a cadillac escalade ext, knowing there are some slight differences to the silverado. It required drilling a hole in the lower plate to accommodate the existing bolt hole. Still used the kit hole as well for extra security. Everything else worked well. Good product and speedy delivery from china

  • Dee Zee Tailgate Assist

    Pretty easy to put together just pay close attention to the instructions for the blind insert which expands to attach to the hole in your tailgate. Very simple to install and works great. No more worry about dropping the tailgate when trying to open one handed with arms full of lumber. Just flip the latch and it will easy down. Very nice and great price. I do not know how it lasts but I will follow up.

  • Awesome product.

    I love the DeeZee tailgate assist. GM's OEM version of the slow open tailgate contains a plastic bushing. Replacement cost is $30. I'll go with the DeeZee version every time. A few bucks cheaper, and I fully expect it will last the life of my truck. Great Purchase, absolutely love this product. Took about 15 minutes from opening the box to complete install.

  • AWESOME!!

    Such a simple device but excellent results. Even though I have a 2018 Silverado dbl cab its a custom so doesn't come thru factory with tailgate assist. It would've cost an arm and a leg to purchase part to make like factory. It was nothing to put in, maybe took 15 mins in 20 degree weather. now my shoulder wont be in pain anymore. just follow directions exactly and you wont have any problems at all.

  • Don’t last as long as the truck.

    Works good but they don’t last forever. My Silverado is a 2011 (it’s now 2021)and I bought the DZ assist the first year of ownership. It lasted close to ten years more like 9 years. but stop functioning and allows the tailgate to again drop like a rock. Of course this could depend how much your tailgate is opened. It first started to free fall the at initial or top of the opening and would still slow travel the lower half of operation. But after more time and more magic oil to leak out it may as well not be there. And once you’re use to it being there and just clicking the gate open and letting go, you’re expecting a slow fall. A few times I had to apologize to my friend when I opened the tailgate on his Chevy Avalanche and allowed it to crash down being use to my truck with a fresh unit. I’m here today buying my second one. Just wish it would have lasted as long as the truck.

  • This Works Great!

    I put this on my 2011 silverado and it is excellent. Tailgate comes down very slow now, yet still goes up easily. The only slightly hard part was trying to put in the blind nut in tailgate. Still only took 20 mins, and has color picture directions.

  • Perfect!

    Works great! Super easy, quick install! Tailgate drops slow and smooth now! I painted hardware to match my truck.
