ProLift Tailgate Assist for Ford Ranger PX PX2 PX3 2012–2021
Three generations of Ford Ranger PX shared the same heavy tailgate design — reliable, but tiring to operate repeatedly on a worksite or at a campsite. The ProLift Tailgate Assist fits a gas strut damper to your Ranger's factory hinge points, absorbing the weight on the way down and assisting the lift on the way up. Once fitted, one hand is all you need to operate the tailgate regardless of what you're carrying in the other.
Features:
- Gas strut damper provides smooth, controlled tailgate descent
- Reduces lifting effort significantly on every open cycle
- Fits PX, PX2 and PX3 Ranger variants on the same bracket set
- Bolt-on installation using existing tailgate hinge points
- No drilling, no permanent modification to the vehicle
- Suits XL, XLS, XLT, Wildtrak and FX4 variants
Fitment:
This kit fits the Ford Ranger PX (2012–2015), PX2 (2015–2018) and PX3 (2018–2021). It is not compatible with the NextGen Ranger 2022+ — see the dedicated NextGen kit in our ProLift range.
