This Tuff Terrain tailgate assist kit teams a gas strut with your Ford Ranger tailgate to take the sting out of opening the tub. The gear slows the drop of the gate, meaning you do not cop the full weight every time you unclip it. The setup also softens the hit at the bottom of travel, which helps protect hinges and cables on rough work days outback to the backyard.

The strut comes tuned for the 2022–2024 Ranger WILDTRAK, RAPTOR and XLT tailgate weight, as the brackets line up with factory mounting points for a neat bolt-up job. The sealed gas body stands up to typical Australian heat and dust, which keeps the assist feeling consistent weekend after weekend. The kit lands with model-specific hardware in the box, making it a smart buy for anyone who loads up their tub often.

Q: Does this tailgate assist kit fit all 2022–2024 Ford Rangers?

A: No, it suits WILDTRAK, RAPTOR and XLT models built from 2022 to 2024. Other grades may run different tailgate hardware and mounting points that do not match this kit. Always cross-check your variant against the vehicle handbook. If you are unsure, our crew is here to help confirm fitment.

Q: Can I still close the tailgate normally with the gas strut fitted?

A: Yes, the tailgate still closes by hand as normal. The gas strut mainly manages the opening motion and final part of the drop. You still latch the tailgate using the factory catch. Normal closing force and latch operation remain under your direct control.

Q: Will I need to drill any new holes in the tailgate?

A: No, the supplied hardware mounts to existing Ranger points. The brackets sit on factory threads that already support the tailgate. This approach keeps the structure intact and helps avoid rust points. Always follow the instruction sheet to align everything correctly.

Q: What tools might be required to remove the factory hardware?

A: The vehicle may use specialised bolts that need matching removal tools. Some tailgates use Torx or other drive patterns that are not in basic kits. You should check the heads on your existing bolts before starting. Having the correct tools on hand prevents damage to fasteners and paint.

Q: Is the tailgate assist kit covered by a warranty?

A: Yes, Tuff Terrain lists a 2-year warranty on these tailgate assist kits. The warranty covers faults in materials or workmanship under normal use. You should retain your proof of purchase for any future claim. Standard supplier terms and conditions apply.
