FITMENT
- 2020-2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500/3500 HD & GMC Sierra 2500/3500 HD
DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- Engineered for demanding job sites and commercial-grade hauling, heavy-duty truck gates require heavy-duty impact control.
- The Seguler Heavy-Duty Tailgate Assist System tames the massive drop weight of 2020–2025 Silverado and Sierra HD tailgates. On active work sites or busy loading docks, sudden tailgate drops create safety hazards and cause premature strain on latch linkages and support cables. By adding high-pressure fluid dampening, this commercial-grade shock ensures your HD gate lowers at a predictable, controlled pace—keeping crew members safe and cargo bed operations silent.
Key Features
- Built with reinforced seals to manage the high mass of HD steel tailgates, lowering the gate smoothly and automatically upon release.
- Eliminates dangerous tailgate crashes, protecting crew workers' hands, job-site equipment, and trailing hitches from sudden impacts.
- Features a nitrogen-charged alloy steel strut with multi-stage seals designed to resist heavy cycling under severe working environments.
- Powder-coated structural steel brackets and corrosion-resistant hardware endure rain, mud, construction dust, and road salt.
FAQ
Q: How is this different from a Silverado 1500 tailgate assist?
A: HD gates are heavier, so they need a system built for their size and weight.
Q: What’s the nutsert for?
A: The nutsert gives the assist system a secure place to mount and keeps the install stable over the long haul.
Q: Why would an HD truck need a tailgate assist?
A: HD trucks spend a lot of time towing, hauling, and working the job site, which means the tailgate opens constantly. Controlled lowering makes that easier and reduces the repeated impact.
Q: Need one for a 1500 or an older platform?
A: For the 2019-2024 Silverado/Sierra 1500, grab our direct-fit 1500 kit. The 2007-2018 1500/2500/3500 is covered by our GMT900/K2XX platform kit.
