Great rails
The rails were very easy to install. They shipped on time. They look great on the truck. They have a thick look to them not like some of the cheaper thinner tube versions. Pretty sturdy as well although I would strap down something super heavy to it

Tail gate assist ..
It took me a little bit to understand just how this device was to be installed onto my tail gate of my truck. But once I have read and studied the instructions a bit more and the tools that they supplied with the new part I had to install. I had to figure out exactly what I had to do correctly. Once I did that the install was rather simple but it took a little time be sure I had the new tail gate assist on the right way and then I connected the assist as shown in the instructions. Once done I then tried the device out and see if I’ve done this install the right way. Thankfully I did the work right and it all seems to work just fine. The assist does work well, but I believe I’d want the tail gate assist not to work as hard as for only one assist on its own or by itself. I believe that two would serve a better purpose because then the one assist wouldn’t have to work as hard as if I had two tail gate assists on my tail gate. If a person thinks better about this way of thinking, two assists would preserve the longevity of the tail assist devices. Why wear out one when two devices preserve the wear and tear of only the one assist on the one side of a tail gate. That’s my way of thoughts. I prefer to make parts last and not wear out fast.

Great Bang for the Buck!
Looks great and was easy to install. I spent more time looking for my 10mm deep socket than I did putting it in. Maybe top 30 minutes…that’s all. American Trucks has never disappointed and this is another example. Great purchase on a budget. Thank you!

The step was perfect. Install was fast and easy. It works like a champ. The step only sticks out slightly beyond the bump which prevents you from running into it. Perfect height for stepping up on to the tail gate. Love it!

Tailgate assist
Product arrived as expected. I was able to install the tailgate assist in a very short period of time, just followed the instructions. I works great and makes opening the tailgate a lot easier. It was a high quality product at a reasonable price. Highly recommend the item.

Tailgate Assist
I didn’t realize that it was to be installed ONLY on the LEFT side and bought 2. Great option the Ford should’ve included back in 2017.

Very easy install. Very good instructions except it went from step 6 to step 10. Somebody left out # 9. Works better than the last one I had and hopefully last longer than 1.5 yrs.
