LS Fabrication tailgate assist 1988 1998 OBS truck

Good point on the template. Helps results stay consistent across different skill levels and makes the install that much easier too.

[@LowLifeYonkes]

I agree bro thanks for the comment I was wondering if anyone else felt the same way thanks for watching as always bro 👊🏼

[@dave5176]

I'm pretty sure that I can probably do without this. Never needed one in the last 50 years anyway. I think I might just get one!

[@LowLifeYonkes]

Yea you probably don’t need this but it is a nice upgrade I know I have dropped my tail gate a few times on accident thanks for watching I appreciate it

[@dave5176]

@@LowLifeYonkes I ordered one for my truck. Thanks so much for showing me this. I also have the ladder that hangs on the tailgate.

Thank you bro 👊🏼

I think a template would help out a lot. I installed mine and the left side of the tailgate isn’t flush anymore with the taillight. 😅Probably less than half an inch. I’m guessing I didn’t drill the hole properly. And also mine drops kinda fast like in 2 seconds compared to yours. Nice video though bro 🤙🏽

[@LowLifeYonkes]

Yea that’s not the first time I got a comment just like this saying almost the exact same thing crazy thanks for sharing and watching bro I appreciate it

[@obslife1985]

Been wanting to buy this for my truck . I thought these came with two shocks for both sides. Wonder if u can put two of them on a tailgate or if that’s even necessary.

[@LowLifeYonkes]

Yea I was confused at first as well I thought there would be 2 shocks but no 1 works perfect I think 2 would go down too slow but I don’t know thanks for watching I appreciate it

Hello brother, I watched your video..pretty cool amazing stuff, so I had to go order me one..weeks later it had arrived and I installed it just like in your video and instructions..but for some reason when I open t drop the tailgate..it doesn't drop slow like in your video..Mines drops in 1-2 sec and yours drops 4-5 seconds ..would it be that the one they had sent me was defective..should I return it for añother one

[@LowLifeYonkes]

Hey bro first thank you for watching my video and to answer your question I now know that LS fab offers a new gen 2 strut which is smaller and slimmer the 1 I installed is the old big first gen …. Do you know which one you have ?

[@kr1ck3t81g]

That's what I was noticing..that the one I ordered came out to be a slinky one (slim)..I thought I had ordered the right one like the one of your video, but I guess I didn't or didn't know the difference..When I looked again they had one for a GMC model..Mines a c1500 Silverado..iwanted the stubby one..How do I order the one you ordered..do you have the link on your page

[@kr1ck3t81g]

I ordered it from LS Fabrication

[@kr1ck3t81g]

The one I ordered was the one in your linked..Tailgate saver shock (strut) - 88 98 GMC Chevy Truck for price $64.99..And the Gen 2 is the slim one that is 15.3mm ..But I aslo noticed they both have the same Dimensions 25×15×6cm ..Do you think they confused me with the Gen 2 one.The Gen 1 bigger one is 18.3mm

[@LowLifeYonkes]

@@kr1ck3t81g I would call them and ask and see if there is a difference

[@floww812]

Can u make a video for the Tahoe I looked and the tailgate looks different and the factory bolt is missing.

[@LowLifeYonkes]

Sorry my Tahoe has barn doors

[@adamswindle28]
