Tailgate Strut Ford Ranger 2019-2021
A gas strut for the tailgate of the previous-generation Ford Ranger. It slows the tailgate down and lets you load it more heavily — instead of letting the tailgate fall free, you lower it under control.
The photo shows one black strut with ball ends plus two mounting brackets (a two-hole bar and a single-hole plate) and two countersunk screws. That is a kit for one side of the tailgate. The supplier also lists struts for earlier Ranger model years.

Fitting and notes
The strut mounts near the tailgate hinge on the supplied brackets. The supplier describes no procedure, gives neither force nor stroke and does not say which side of the vehicle it is for or whether it is universal. Nor does it say whether one piece is enough or two are needed — even though the description text uses the plural. If you want symmetrical assistance on both sides, ask us before ordering.
Frequently asked questions
How many pieces will I get?
The name and the photo point to one piece with a full set of mounts. The description text is in the plural, so we confirm this with the supplier before ordering.
Which model years exactly does it fit?
The name says 2019-2021, the supplier's text says 2019-2022. We settle that discrepancy per order — just give us your Ranger's build year.
Does it fit older Rangers?
Not these model years, but the supplier says it stocks struts for earlier generations. Tell us your model year and we will check.
