    Just installed mine this morning. I don’t have any rubbing, and it lowers smoothly. Works great!

    Wish I knew of the 1 hour Lock tight wait before I installed it ! Glue and patience and wa laah ! Works well. If I had a suggestion, it would be to add a spring so it would actually assist in ‘RAISING the tail gate : )

    Only problem on a superduty the strut hits the bracket when closing the tailgate. I don't see it lasting very long.

    How do I remove an old nutsert?

    Why do you use the thread locker on the allen bold, wouldn't you use it on the ball bolt?

    • @Fueler
      @Fueler 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes I don’t know why you are putting thread lock on a bolt that’s being removed and replaced with another?

    • @johnvrabec9747
      @johnvrabec9747 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You lock the threads of the Alien bolt to the expanding part that goes inside the tailgate. You need it to not spin, the nut you tighten 9 complete revolutions is actually turning on the bolt, which is basically moving the bolt back out, and since its locked on the inside threads in the tailgate, it causes it to deform and expand on the inside, securing it to the tailgate. After the 9 turns, you remove the Allen bolt as it has done it's jib and you can now install the other bolt with the other plate with the nib on it.

    Does anyone know how to remove the nutsert? I had mine shear off and now I need to somehow find a way to remove this from the tailgate.

      I know this was posted nearly a year ago but did you end up finding a solution ?

    • @philiplee8330
      @philiplee8330 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@sleepyturttle I guess I "found" a solution; I forgot about it. Never got it out. I figured unless I want to install another one, I really don't need to dig it out.

    Sorry but this worked great for about 6 months after install. One year later and the pin attached to the tailgate is completely rusted! Sorry but it never should have rusted that fast.
