  • Recommended Tailgate Assist for a 2018 Ford F-150
    Hey Eugene! The item # 74211 does not but I have something similar that does. It is the DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System for Pickup Trucks item # DZ43204. This system focuses on lowering your tailgate softly so it doesn't slam down as soon as you unlatch your tailgate. It does not help raise it. The DeeZee item # DZ43204 is custom fit and specifically designed for the 2018 Ford F-150's without the power liftgate option.

  • Compatibility of DZ43204 Tailgate Assist with Tonneau Cover on 2019 F-150 FX4 EcoBoost
    A Roll n' Lock brand tonneau cover would not interfere with the installation of a DeeZee # DZ43204 tailgate assist. The two would work together with no problem. If you use the provided link, you can see an install video.

  • Is There a Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist for a 2022 Ford F-150
    I do have another option for you but the Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist isn't offered for a 2022 Ford F-150 and it hasn't been since 2004. That said, we do have the DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System for Pickup Trucks part # DZ43204 which is similar in that it will help lower the tail gate but it won't help with picking it up.

  • Availability Of Tailgate Assist For A 2019 Ford F-150
    Hello Ace, thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, the Hopkins EasyLift # 74211 will not fit a 2019 Ford F-250. The only tailgate assist we offer for this truck is the DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System # DZ43204. This is great for lowering the tailgate but will not really help for lifting the tailgate after opening it.

  • Will Dissimilar Metals be An Issue with Installing DeeZee Tailgate Assist
    We have not had any issues with dissimilar metals being and issue with the DeeZee tailgate assist systems like the part # DZ43204. We sell quite a few of these too and many people leave reviews of their experience with the product. If it was a problem I am sure we would have seen it by now.

  • Tailgate Assist Fit For 2019 Ford F-150
    There is a tailgate assist that will fit and work for your 2019 Ford F-150, but Hopkins has told us specifically that the EasyLift is not a fit for the later model year F-150, including your 2019. So the only option for a tailgate assist is from DeeZee: - DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System for Pickup Trucks # DZ43204 This will help with lowering your tailgate, making that much easier, though not for lifting it as well. I have added a link below to a video install of...

  • Is There A Tailgate Assist For 2019 Ford F150
    Unfortunately the manufacturer does not recommend the Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist # 74211 on Ford F-150's 2004 and newer. The only tailgate assist we have listed as a confirmed fit for your truck is the DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System # DZ43204 which is confirmed to fit with tailgates with or without the step. But this will only help with lowering your tailgate, not raising it like you were looking for.

  • Recommended Tailgate Assist for 2017 Ford F-150 XLT Crew Cab

  • Should you Re-install the DeeZee Tailgate Assist if it was Installed Upside-Down
    If you installed the DeeZee Tailgate Assist, part # DZ43204, upside-down, then I recommend removing it and installing it rightside-up. Though it seems to be working properly now, there may be some unforeseen complications later on, so it's better to be safe than sorry. As for forcing it, don't worry about this too much. It's a snap-in-place assembly, so there isn't a risk of damaging the components.

  • Operation of DeeZee Tailgate Assist System in Cold Weather
    I spoke with my contact at DeeZee regarding the use of their Tailgate Assist Systems in cold weather. He said that while they haven't officially tested the units in extreme cold, they have yet to hear any feedback from customers with regard to weather-related failure. He did also say that they sell quite a bit of these to customers in Canada and have not seen any of the shocks break down due to the cold. It's possible that the malfunction you experienced was actually unrelated to the...

  • Will The Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist Work On a 2020 Ford F-150?
    While the Hopkins EasyLift Truck Bed Tailgate Lift Assist # 74211 is a universal fit item I don't feel like it will work on your 2020 Ford F-150 as you have an aluminum tailgate. I feel like the steel rod would damage your tailgate over time. This is why we have the DeeZee Tailgate Assist # DZ43204 but it will only fit on models which do not have the factory system.
