Easy Lift Tailgate Assist Struts for your Ute
Giving You a Helping Hand with your Tailgate
Lighten your load with the HSP Tail Assist. An essential ute tailgate support product for your Ute. Available in a twin or single strut system, this innovative solution harmoniously dampens the tailgate when declining and or lightens the tailgate when inclining, making everyday ute use more convenient and less strenuous.
The HSP Tailgate Assist is available in a single or twin strut option. Twin struts are for vehicles without a torsion bar and provide both soft drop dampening and weight-reduced easy lift action. Single struts are designed for vehicles with a torsion bar, offering only soft drop dampening to complement the already reduced weight of the tailgate.

The HSP Tailgate Assist range can be installed in just 5 to 45 minutes, depending on your vehicle. As the installation utilises factory points, almost every model requires no drilling and, in many applications, the original hardware and bolts of the vehicle are repurposed, providing a seamless, factory-integrated look. It’s fast, simple, and stress-free, you can install the HSP tail assist system at a professional workshop or in the comfort of your own home.
