How It Works
EZDown uses a precision damper system to control the speed at which the tailgate lowers.
Important:
The damper and hardware do not carry the tailgate load. The original metal straps/cables still carry the weight.
For optimal safety and performance, we recommend not exceeding 250kg load capacity on the tailgate.
