Works well but a little friction between cables
It works as it should and I’m sure this happens with every brand of this product but it wore down the plastic on the cable that hold my tailgate from rubbing together. It’s not a deal breaker for me, trust me, it has saved my tailgate multiple times already in a couple months.

Great fit on 2018 RAM 1500
Watch installation videos on YouTube and it's easy to install. Great fit and it works as expected. Doesn't feel cheap.

It broke while installing, Threads from the end pieces failed.
Don't Buy...Product failed on both ends upon installation. - Installation was straight forward and easy. However while connecting the piston one end piece popped right out the threads. And it was screwed all the way in. So, I thought maybe it was shipped wrong and I switched the ends around and they seemed tight. "problem fixed" Wrong! The other end popped off. Junk! Poorly made, Junk! Buy it own risk......Good luck. - (Truck) Dodge Ram1500. Update: So, today instead of ordering another brand kit, just for the piston. I decided to drill stright throw the failed end links, in order to secure the end links with screws. Still working with JUNK.....I suggest using another brand.

Works great, saves my arms, pregnant wife can open and close it now
Installed it in about 5–10 minutes, and it’s been working great ever since. It really makes opening the tailgate much smoother and saves me from straining my elbows — especially first thing in the morning or after a long workday. I do wish it offered a little lift assist when closing, but for the price, it’s a solid upgrade that makes a big difference
