So you guys have two sets of the same ones? I'll take one off your hands

So those PDFs were showing the old-old kit? It seems like that was a better design. WTF.

Haha same here.

As I posted above, they sent me a replacement and I got it two days later. Very impressed. I just put it on my work bench and figured I would get to it in a month or so when its warmer here. But after seeing this update, back to the workbench...and sure enough..its the same one that I have on the truck now. ha ha. Well looks like I have a spare. My original is still working fine. Like I said, to the guys yet to install...Its important that the foam piece is in the right spot and you must heat shrink the cover over it to stay in place. The instructions do say how to position the foam, but you need to lift the tailgate and do it at the same time.

TOTALLY Agree - the lady apologized and said she had gotten confused. Thats EXACTLY what I told her - the old design was MUCH BETTER but you gotta think if they changed it - it MUSt have been REALLY bad!!

I wonder if there are any other companies out there with a similar product? Surely Dee Zee can't have a monopoly on tailgate assist kits....right?

Humvee, if you're as particular about your truck as I am about mine, you don't want this thing - it might work fairly well at first but overall it's a POS.

Thanks for the heads up. I feel there are very mixed reviews about this thing. For cheap, I wouldn't mind trying it. I'm always down to look at products and see what's lacking.

Reptar - ya CANT make this stuff up!!!!!! Good things our Raptors are made better than EZ Downs! Unbelievable that those instructions she sent that you posted are 100 times better than the new and improved version. Their profitablility is in the negatives @ this point after they have sent everyone double new "old" style orders! LOL

Man - I can tell you ne mod this is worth its price and that is the Bak F1. Talk about engineering and QUALITY!!!! That cover has WAY EXCEEDED my expectations in EVERY ASPECT. Plus their service and Morrie was A+++

Old style is LONG GONE - they just had a few spare parts lying around that I unfortunately got. Now those parts are gone. She was gonna send me the OLD STYLE yesterday but she checked anf they are done. They dont even represent that manufacturer anymore. Totally different company making these newer ones she told me. What coulda been?
