The IAQWE 43200 tailgate assist shock kit gently controls and slows your Ford F150 or Lincoln Mark LT tailgate for safe one-handed lowering without drilling.

Replace abrupt tailgate drops with a reliable damper designed to fit Ford F150 models from 2004–2014 and Lincoln Mark LT 2006–2008.

How does the IAQWE kit prevent tailgate slamming?

• Hydraulic damper calibrated for tailgate weight and travel
• Reinforced metal end bracket disperses load at mounting points
• Anti-dust seal reduces wear and maintains smooth performance
