Helpful Expert Reply:
The Fold Down Truck Bed Expander - Black # BX4004-02 can be used with the DeeZee Tailgate Assist Custom Tailgate-Lowering System for Dodge Trucks # DZ43301. The lowering system will still help the tailgate to drop slower, but the additional 21 lbs of the extender will have an impact. Because the weight is dispersed and the hinge takes most of that weight, it is still beneficial to use the tailgate assist.
