Product Overview
A frayed cable or a tailgate that drops past level is easy to ignore until it bends hinges, spills cargo, or snaps under weight. Replacing both supports together gives the gate an even stop and removes a visibly weakened cable from service.
These cables carry the open tailgate at its intended position. They do not repair bent hinges, damaged latches, torn mounting points, or an overloaded gate, so inspect those areas before fitting the pair.
Key Features & Performance
- Matched two-cable set for even tailgate support
- Replaces 7081215 and later reference 7081445
- Helps prevent the tailgate from dropping beyond its designed open position
- Coated flexible supports for matching Polaris Ranger beds

Compatibility Notice
Northline Parts does its best to list all known compatible models, but the correct part may fit an application not shown.
Production date, serial number, engine option, dimensions, connections, and previous repairs can change the part used within the same model. Compare the removed item and service information before purchase.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Should I replace both cables if only one is broken? A: Yes. The other cable has carried the same age and load, and a matched pair helps the gate stop evenly.
Q: Will new cables fix a tailgate that does not latch? A: Not by themselves. Check the latches, strikers, hinges, alignment, and bed structure separately.
Q: Why should I compare the removed part? A: Use the compatible list as a starting point, then compare the original reference number, dimensions, connections, mounting details, production date, and equipment or engine serial information.
Q: Is this a factory-branded component? A: This is a new aftermarket part. The brand and model names identify the applications it is intended to service.
