DESCRIPTION

Product Overview

  • Every unassisted tailgate drop sends a sharp impact wave straight into your truck's aging support cables, latches, and bed hinges. Built specifically to absorb that destructive kinetic force, the Seguler Tailgate Assist System buffers every drop on 1997–2025 Ford F-150 and Super Duty trucks.
  • Older Ford tailgates are notoriously heavy, and repeated hard drops cause cable fatigue and latch misalignment over time. By regulating the drop speed with a nitrogen-charged hydraulic cylinder, this kit protects your original body hardware while providing a refined, hands-free lowering movement — no drilling, no cutting, and no change to how your tailgate latches.

Key Features

  • Regulates drop speed with a nitrogen-charged hydraulic cylinder for a controlled, predictable lowering motion.
  • Cuts the repeated impact loads that wear down the factory cables, hinges, and mounting points.
  • Mounts to existing factory locations with high-strength steel hardware — no drilling or permanent modification.
  • Includes a protective Mylar sheet to guard painted surfaces during installation.
    Tucks in discreetly and works alongside your original tailgate system.

FAQ

Q: How do I know if I have a Flareside or Stepside truck?

A: Flareside/Stepside models have external rear fenders and a narrower bed. If your truck has a standard fleet-side bed, the kit will fit. Check your bed style before ordering.

Q: Will the tailgate still drop all the way open?

A: Yes. The assist only controls the descent speed — it never limits how far the gate travels, and it never opens the tailgate on its own.

Q: Will it fit a factory steel tailgate?

A: Yes. Each kit is built around the original steel tailgates these trucks came with, and it works alongside your factory cables rather than replacing them.

Q: Is one shock enough for a Super Duty tailgate?

A: Yes. Each kit is engineered specifically for the factory tailgate it fits, and delivers controlled lowering with a single shock installation.
