How is the blind nut tool supposed to work?

go to dee zee you tube site for installation video. there was no instructions or tool in my package. you have to tighten bolt in to inner nut and tighten similar to s toggle bolt. the video will explain. everything went well and tailgate works pretty well

Can this be mounted on the passenger side?

Sorry, it only can be mounted on the driver's side. It will slowly allow the tailgate to drop.

Will this work for an 05 Chevy Avalanche?

No, it will not fit a 05 avalanche

I don't get it why is the black version price significantly Higher than the silver one. Anyway, I bought the silver one for much cheaper and spray-painted it black. Works great easy to install just make sure not to over-tighten it.
