The Chevrolet S10 Tailgate Lift Support holds the back gate of the pickup, so you can load your gear without slamming it closed. The compact gas-charged struts on the Chevrolet S10 line store high pressure that activates as the gate passes the midpoint, enabling it to push the gate up smoothly to a fully raised and steady position. This pressure counteracts the weight of the panel so the Tailgate Lift Support stays up until you purposely close it to prevent painful or injury-causing drops. Over the years of production, the Tailgate Lift Support has been equipped with sealed gas cylinders rather than the earlier spring bars because struts provide a lighter operation with quieter movement and more precise damping. As the Tailgate Lift Support ages or is subjected to harsh temperatures, it will lose gas and show signs that it requires replacement. For instance, the gate feels heavy to lift, it drifts downward, and does not stay open in cold weather. Replacing the Tailgate Lift Support of your Chevrolet S10 will immediately allow you to safely stow tools, sports gear, or anything else with two hands.
