Review on Ford FL3Z-99406A10-A Shock Assembly: Genuine Tailgate Support at its Finest by George Utley

Agree with all reviews that discuss the benefits of this feature. Several areas not discussed; First you will need red Loctite for assembly. Loctite is factory set to torque two mounting screws and will need to be reapplied during installation. I used saws and pulled the tailgate at an angle, leaving the left hinge engaged. I laid the remnants of the carpet on the surface of the saw in contact with the back door. Truly the work of one man. The item is painted black. My exterior color is Magnetic Metallic 2018 F150 XLT. Instead of buying $50 touch up paint I used Duplicolor PN: BGM0522 Storm Gray Met (14WA391E) $10 at Auto Zone. A good game that no one will ever know. See photo. Adjust the mount exactly to the silhouette of the original mount and the ruler is perfect.
