This ARANA tailgate assist shock took only a few minutes to install with the included hardware and instructions. Once installed, the tailgate lowers smoothly and no longer slams down. The shock feels well-built and operates quietly without affecting normal tailgate use. Fitment was perfect for my Silverado, and it adds noticeable convenience and protection for everyday use. Great value for the price—highly recommended. I bought it for my 85 year old grandfather and it’s absolutely perfect for him! Review: A must have for your Ford Maverick! - This item was affordable and works great, I was quite upset the Maverick didn't have a tailgate assist from the factory and thankfully someone offers this strut on the aftermarket. Install was easy, however, one piece of hardware on the truck requires removal and reinstall of a knob shaped part that uses a star bit and this was difficult to remove with the tool provided as its really torqued in from the factory and the tool easily slips out of the knob causing you to smack your knuckles. I highly recommend having an impact driver or a socket tool to remove this. Beyond that I am happy with the price, quality and function of the strut. I would recommend it for all Maverick owners! Keep in mind, you have to remove the tie down loop from the left side of the tailgate to have clearance for this strut. However, if you look up the "Maverick Truck Club" a user that goes by the name "Lane" sells a custom replacement loop that clears this strut. I recommend searching him out and buying his custom replacement so you don't lose your tie down. My photo shows this replacement tie down loop. ## Features - Multiple Fitment: This was rated on the Dodge Ram forum to be the best add on for your truck, perfect fit2009-2018 Ram 1500, 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic, 2010-2025 Ram 2500, and 2010-2025 Ram 3500 - Tailgate Soft Open : Strong dampener mod makes the heavy truck tailgate drop slowly at a linear rate, making tailgate opening more safer and easier - Works Like OEM : Precise molding based on truck tailgate, perfect fit to tailgate shape, mounts with OEM bolts, no drilling, no damage to the paint - 10 Minutes Installation : Dampener kit comes with all the tools and is very easy to install in 10 minutes.

Better than that, it works well and so far (through maybe 50 to 100 cycles) has proven to be an excellent way to keep my tailgate from “slamming” down. I think it’s an excellent value and would highly recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - ARANA Tailgate Assist for 2009-2018 Dodge Ram 1500, 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic, Soft Open Tail Gate Shock Damper Kit Fits 2010-2024 Dodge Ram 2500 3500(All Tools Provided) - VIPMOTOZ Full LED Smoke Lens License Plate Light For 2003-2018 Compatible with Dodge RAM 1500 2500 3500 Pickup Truck, 6000K Diamond White, 2-Pieces Tag Lamp Assembly Replacement - WV94109 Outside-Mount Car Window Visors Rain Guards, Dark Smoke, 4-Pieces Set, Fits 2009-2018 Dodge Ram 1500 Crew Cab, 2010-2024 Ram 2500/3500 Crew Cab & Mega Cab, 2019-2024 Ram 1500 Classic Crew Cab --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/185607341-arana-tailgate-assist-soft-open-for-dodge-ram-1500-2500](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/185607341-arana-tailgate-assist-soft-open-for-dodge-ram-1500-2500) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-07-21*
