Anyone know the part# for the OEM tailgate assist? Also anyone added this? I've done a search and only found aftermarket products. 2022 Tradesmen 2500. Thanks.

The install is super easy. I seen a few videos on them and they all remove the metal clips on the dampener - don't just push it over the pin on the top side through the tail light opening. Then have your wife slowly lower the tailgate until the shock meets up with the lower pin and push it on. It took me longer to remove the tail light then to to the rest of the steps. It is so easy.

I installed the dampener on my 2020 Ram 2500 I did not remove the metal clips. The dampener I ordered from Chrysler is marked with top and an arrow. Very simple install.
