- Utility / landscape / equipment trailer with matching right-side spring-assist mount and gate geometry
Important fitment note: No manufacturer-confirmed gate weight range or spring rating is available for this kit. Verify your tailgate weight and mounting geometry, and check the spring’s full travel before installation.
Product Overview
A steel mesh trailer ramp can be awkward to handle, especially at the end of a workday. A properly fitted spring assist counterbalances some of the gate weight, making routine loading and unloading easier.
Lift-assist kits are not all universal. The ramp height, weight, hinge location, spring travel and mount spacing must be appropriate. A spring selected for the wrong gate can become unsafe.
Key Features & Performance
- Right-side installation: For a compatible trailer’s right-hand mounting position.
- Spring counterbalance: Helps reduce manual tailgate lifting force when sized correctly.
- Retrofit use: Adds assistance to a trailer that already has a hinged tailgate.
