Kinda linked to the tailgate. My 2009 Nissan Titan’s tailgate goes down real smooth and slow due to a gas spring set up inside one of the rear bed sides. Anyone thought of doing this to ours?

Put one of those on my son's 2014 F-150 last year. Aftermarket from the parts store, I think. I remember thinking that it would go on my bump just as easy.
