Availability of Tailgate Assist Product for 1997 Dodge Ram 2500
Question:
Hello, Can you tell me if the DeeZee Tailgate Assist will fit a 1997 Dodge Ram 2500? If not, are there any similar products that will assist with lowering a pickup tailgate? Thanks

Expert Reply:
Hopkins offers the EasyLift, part # 74211 that makes raising the tailgate easier, but we do not offer anything for that vehicle that would make lowering the tailgate easier. The DeeZee Tailgate Assist you mentioned is unfortunately not compatible with Dodge Ram 3/4 ton models older than the 2003 model year
If you would care to view a video showing the Hopkins EasyLift in action, click the provided link.
