Speaker 1: Today on this 2018 Ram 3500 we'll be having a look at and showing you how to install the Stromberg Carlson 100-series fifth wheel tailgate with open design, part number VGD-10-100. Here's what our tailgate looks like installed. Now the reason you're gonna want a tailgate such as this one is that the open design that it offers allows you to back up to your fifth wheel or your gooseneck trailer with your tailgate in the upright position without having to lower it and you can still get coupled to it. One thing that our customers like about this is that the primed powder coat finish that we have on here is paintable, so you can have it painted to match the color of your truck. The steel construction of your tailgate means that it's a very sturdy piece, and it'll last a very long time. The vented open design that we have on the tailgate offers superior visibility so when we're backing up to our trailer, we can see it a lot easier to ensure that our coupler is lined up with our fifth wheel or the ball on our gooseneck.To open our tailgate is super easy. more
