Description

ProLift Tailgate Assist for Toyota Hilux SR5 2015–2025

The Hilux tailgate is heavy by design — which makes dropping it unloaded a jarring experience and lifting it one-handed with tools in the other hand genuinely difficult. The ProLift Tailgate Assist solves this with a gas strut damper that attaches to the factory tailgate hinges, slowing the descent and taking the weight out of the lift. The result is smooth, controlled tailgate operation every time, with no modifications to the vehicle.

Features:

  • Gas strut damper controls descent speed — no more slamming or crashing tailgates
  • Significantly reduces lift effort when raising the tailgate
  • Vehicle-specific brackets for the Hilux N80 platform — bolt-on fit
  • No drilling, no cutting, no permanent modification
  • Durable construction suited to daily work and off-road use
  • Compatible with aftermarket trays and tub liners

Fitment:

This kit fits the Toyota Hilux SR5 from 2015 through to the current 2025 facelift (N80 platform). Not suitable for earlier Hilux generations. Confirm your grade and build year before ordering.

Pair the ProLift with tailgate central locking for a complete tailgate upgrade, or explore our full range of tub mats and sliding trays for the Hilux.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the ProLift Tailgate Assist do?

The ProLift Tailgate Assist uses gas struts and dampers to control your tailgate’s movement — making it lighter to lift and preventing it from slamming down. It ensures smoother, safer operation for everyday use.

Is the ProLift kit compatible with my ute?

Yes — each kit is vehicle-specific and designed for popular models like Ford Ranger, Toyota Hilux, Isuzu D-Max, Nissan Navara, and Mitsubishi Triton. Select your model year for the correct fit.

Can I install the tailgate assist myself?

Absolutely. The kit includes all brackets, hardware, and step-by-step instructions. Installation takes about 20 minutes and requires only basic tools — no drilling or modification.

Are the gas struts durable and weather-resistant?

Yes — all ProLift struts are made from stainless steel shafts and powder-coated cylinders, built to resist rust, dust, and water. They’re designed for long-term outdoor use in Australian conditions.
