Thanks for sharing your experience on this, maybe ill go with a different type after seeing your troubles here. You mentioned a couple times about the Loctite being glue rather than loctite...and just wanted to mention it is exactly glue..it's a threadlocker adhesive.

Mine has a plate at thee top bolt on the truck which drops the upper strut connect down about 3 inches or so and I have had it on for some time now and it works (closes and opens) fine with no binding.

Had exactly same experience on my 2007 Ram 1500. Cable constantly got pinched. Removed immediately. Very few other videos show a detailed view of the cable tucking in while closing.

Product Design Flaw. Strut and cable should not be on the same bolt.

To fix the cable getting pinched just twist the cable on one side to make it hug the tailgate better easy fix had to do it on my obs ford

ive used nutserts for things tht deal with much more pressure than a tailgate. maybe opt for a different nutsert rather than the one it came with.

Hey Buddy. I bought the same one. I had all the same issues as you showed. The second time i shut it the cable Did not fold up properly , and was binding up & actually broke my tail light. I am pissed. Thinking About trying to completely remove the cable on that side and see if it will function OK without the cable and just leave the shock in place. What a pos this thing is.

@@cumminsperformancs I noticed a slight differences in the kit that's made from DEEZ . When I bought my kit it looked identical to that 1 I'm not sure where the change took place.

Total piece of crap and will definitely rub on your tail lights only for a little while due to the fact that the bottom bolt loosens its way right out of there, definitely taking mine back to where it came from and where it can definitely stay
