Pickup Tailgate Assist / Damper — TXCB 105 CTRD
A kit that makes a pickup tailgate easier to live with. It consists of a closing unit and an opening damper — the tailgate lowers softly instead of dropping under its own weight, and closes without needing a swing. It mounts on the inner bed wall by the tailgate hinge.
Pickup Tailgate Assist / Damper — TXCB 105 CTRD
A pickup tailgate carries real weight and slams against its stops every time it drops. This kit slows that fall and helps pull the gate closed, which saves the hinges, the cables and your back — particularly when your other hand is full.
In the photos a black module is bolted to the inner bed wall right by the hinge, with a thin cable running to the gate; alongside it sits the damper that controls the opening. The supplier's images carry the Carryboy logo.

Fitting and notes
The supplier does not state which pickup models this particular kit fits — and that is the single most important thing to know before buying, since hinge geometry and the space around it differ from make to make. Tell us your make, model and year before ordering. Nor is it stated whether fitting requires drilling the bed, what the maximum gate weight is, or whether the kit works alongside a canopy or roller cover.
