2023 Ranger tailgate dampener

[RangerFan1967]

I just had the tailgate dampener installed using my Fordpass points. It is nice now not slamming down when you open it.

Once you go damper, you'll never go back.
Seriously though, I've had tailgate cables snap on other trucks I've owned after a few years.

I love the way it drops nice and soft now. I don't understand why its not included to begin with fro only 50 bucks.

Damper ALMOST rhymes with manpurse if you've drank enough. I don't believe that's a coincidence.

Damper also rhymes with “watch it, we don’t allow comments like that”.

Of all the comments that get made on here, that's the one that's deemed unacceptable? It's a joke.


My bad rangerfan, it was just a friendly ribbing. Don't mind me.

Funny you mention FordPass points, they just sent me an email... I currently have 0 points....

I don't just let my tailgate drop. That prevents the snapping issue.

I may eventually get one but it's not high on the list. Now an aluminum transmission pan with a drain, that's pretty much at the top.

I probably wouldn't have gotten one if it wasn't free using the Ford Pass points, however it is nice.
