Gorilla lift,
November 18, 2008
By Elitewolf
from Nakina, NC
|
"While I was healing from a broken leg this summer, my wife had to do all the outside maintenance that I usually do along with looking out for me. She needed to take our commercial mower to get gas, since it holds 12 gallons, but she could not lower or raise tailgate on the trailer. So she would take 3 gas cans and put 3 gallons each in them because she couldn't lift the full 5 gallons. This was time consuming and there was always the chance she would spill the gas when putting in the mower. I ordered the lift assist from Norhern and when they arrived I assisted her with advice on installing them on Saturday morning. It took a couple of hours since she had never drilled holes in heavy metal before, but they installed easily after the holes were drilled. Now she can lower and raise the heavy tailgate with one hand. A great product that we will both enjoy in years to come."

Gorilla lift,
November 17, 2008
By DiggerDave
from Danvers, Mass

"Incredible difference. can literally lift a 150 pound tailgate with one finger. Did have to experiment with the connection point a bit to get the proper tension, just as the instructions stated. Otherwise very simple easy to follow instructions.
The crew is singing my praises for ordering one."

GORILLA LIFT,
November 11, 2008
By JMRANCH
from MOBILE ALABAMA
|
"THIS PRODUCT IS A BACK SAVER AND WORKS EXCELLENT, ALSO WAS EASY TO INSTALL FOLLOWING DIRECTIONS GIVEN WITH PRODUCT. THERE IS ONE THING I HAD TO DO BECAUSE MY TRAILER HAS A 2" X 3" TOP RAIL I HAD TO GO TO HARDWARE STORE AND BUY 8 - 4" BOLTS TO REPLACE THE 8 - 2 1/2" BOLTS THAT CAME WITH IT. THIS WAS NOT A PROBLEM. IF I EVER SOLD THIS TRAILER WITH THE GORILLA LIFT I WILL DEFINITELY BUY THIS PRODUCT AGAIN."

Why Did I Wait !!!!,
September 8, 2008
By GITRDUN
from Delmar, MD
|
"I have a split ramp/stretched steel gate combination- they are 4x3.5 strong as get out but heavy. I saw of these lifts on a trailer and said to myself, I can make these: garage door springs, cable, rollers, and some pvc pipe for an enclosure. Well not only being ugly, the cost and engineering just wasn't worth the time and effort. After an 1.5 I walked right in the house, ordered the lifts, it came in a few days and put them on in an 1.5 . WHY DID I WAIT !!! I had looked at this lift a year ago should have bought it then. Honestly, a 10yr. old could operate the gate up and down now."

Real Back Saver,

"The tailgate lift assist installed very easy, about 1.5 hrs. Worth every minuite of it.
product works as advertised, even better than expected. I've loaned the trailer to my nephew and his friends several times and they have not been able to damage it yet, so must be pretty durable."

Best Tailgate Lift,
August 18, 2008
By Swedelar
from Sequim, WA
|
"The Gorilla-Lift 2-Sided Tailgate Lift Assist is the best thing that has to come into my life recently. I was struggling to lift the tail gate on my golf cart trailer. I use this every day and the tail gate is quite heavy. I installed the Gorilla-Lift and my day starts out a lot easier. Now I only need to put a little effort into the hard task that used to be some thing I hated to do. Installation was extremely easy and only took about 1 hour. The lift springs are fully enclosed, so you never catch any clothing in them. If you need a tail gate lift, the Gorilla-Lift is the one to get."
