  • Wish I would’ve bought this years ago!
I bought the Gorilla Lift for my 80+ year-old father's trailer, over the last few years, the gate had gotten too heavy for him to lift. This lift has been an absolute game-changer. After installing it, my father can now easily lift the gate with one hand. The installation was straightforward, and the product works exactly as advertised. It has brought back his independence and made using the trailer much safer and more manageable for him. Highly recommend this product! ... show more

  • Great Product and Customer Support
I'm building up an 8x30 ft flatbed and wanted a ramp gate. I chose this Gorilla Lift for the job. The lift weight is actually adjustable by adjusting where the cables are anchored to the ramp. As is, it lifts the huge ramp gate pretty easily. The problem was that with my design I had to mount it 30 inches high. The result was that I could not get the gate cables far enough up to make the ramp feather weight and have it touch the ground. I called the factory several times to see if I could move the tubes apart a few inches without damaging the springs. I could not get thru to them, so I left a message and the next morning a got a call from a very nice support person saying it would be no problem. I could not get longer cables so I added 2 inch chain links at the gate and spread the tubes apart 3 inches. The gate is really heavy but I only need 10 lbs of lift to get it almost vertical. If I decide to add another 3 inches of links and move the anchor on the gate 2 inches toward the top and stretch the spring 3 more inches, I can make the gate balanced so only a couple lbs is needed to raise and lower it. I'm so impressed that I've decided to modify another trailer with a ramp gate to use the Gorilla Lift. ... show more

  • Great product...but need sharp drill bit
Product works great. It does take some time to install. Our trailer is made of heavy duty metal. Had to purchase a 1/2 " heavy metal drill bit. Other things to consider is when placing the metal tubes in the trailer, make sure you do not have to drill right next to a trailer support beam. We learned on the first side, so the second side was not as difficult. For us, drilling the holes was the most difficult. After that, everything else fell into place. Wish I had purchased this a long time ago. Now my elderly father and lower and lift the massive tailgate without assistance. ... show more

  • Nice to have!
I like the ease of lifting the loading gate up and down. I used only one lifter because other members of our UTV group with this product have disconnected their second Gorilla lifters because of the combined strength of the two lifters making lifting a bit too easy and rapid closing. Mine requires a little assistance to lift but is still quite easy. I am glad to have it. However, I recommend a design addition that is needed to make installation more versatile. The mounting instructions say to mount the rear tube at 1/4" from the end of the top rail(pic 3)(I assume to avoid cable abrasion with the top rail when the gate is down). That won't work with my trailer because it uses an end post of 1-1/4" by 3" wide tubing, making the mounting bolt fall within the tubing and thus not accessible for the mounting bolt position provided in the lift tubing. I adjusted the installation by drilling a new mounting home at 4-1/4" back from the end of the Gorilla tube and then squaring the hole for the carriage bolt head - then elongating that hole by 3/4" to allow the long mounting bolt to be installed in that hole(too long otherwise). This modification should be standard in the product to make it usable in most any mounting situation. Also, I don't understand why plastic end caps for the front of each tube set are not included with the tubing. It is costly to have to order and ship these items. ... show more

  • Makes lifting trailer gate effertless.
What an awesome addition to my trailer. The gate was like doing a power lift Everytime I closed it. My trailer is a heavy duty 10k with supports on the gate to load heavy equ7 and all and this thing still makes it possible to close it with literally one finger amazing. Best thing is all of the parts are available to purchase separately so I the future when things were out I'm not stuck with a useless metal tube mounted on the trailer. But it once buy it for the life of the trailer. I mounted mine custom. I welded on the lift tubes and bought some 1 3/4" x 1 3/4" square perforated plated steel tubing from Lowe's, welded that on the trailer gate and made my own studs to attach the cables to out of 1/2" rod that I threaded 2 1/2" and drilled at the end to accept a cotter pin (see pics). This way it's adjustable in the future when the springs start to naturally fatigue. I just move it up a hole to maintain the correct tension for the lift assist. I also have a few adjustments in the other direction. Cutting 100 lawns a week and literally having to open and close the gate over 200 times in 3-4 days this thing is a back saver. I love this thing. I took off one start though because it should come with an adjustable mounting option for the studs that go on the gate. That's kind of a crude way to mount it the way they say to do it (just drill a hole at the point where the tension is correct and forget about it) because you know the springs are going to lose some tension relatively quick and it's going to need to be adjusted. ... show more

  • Wonderful
My husband wanted this after seeing one at work. We have a 6x12 trailer and the back gate is very heavy. It took a little bit of drilling into the metal frame of the trailer to install, but otherwise no issues. It is great. My husband said best thing since sliced bread. Just a slight lift with the foot on the gate and it moves up, almost into place. Just need to lock gate in place. ... show more
