## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this fit the all new gen ranger wildtrak 2023 model?**
A: According to the manufacturer, this model only fits the 2019-2022 Ford Ranger.

**Q: Boss Good morning can this be fittid here in Philippines Ford ranger xls 2020?**
A: It seems unlikely that Ford would change the tailgate on a Philippines Ranger from a continental Ranger. It "should" be fine.

**Q: The amazon banner states it will not fit my 2020 ford ranger but the description below says it does?????**
A: It fit my 2019 just fine. I believe there is no change to 2020 tailgate. Also, it works great!

**Q: Does this fit on a 2022 ranger ?**
A: I would say yes, from 2019-2022 are all generation One models. 2023 model will be the first of Gen2

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice upgrade!!
*by M***R on October 27, 2025*

It works well, installation straightforward as long as you have the right tools and well worth the modest price. No more gate slamming down!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Took less time to install than to read the instructions...and works perfectly.
*by T***S on May 29, 2024*

I bought the Dee Zee because it's the one that I've seen Ford put on the Ranger if you order this feature from the factory. So you could almost call it the OEM part... I bought a "used like new" and true to Amazon's word it was complete and in perfect shape, someone had sliced open the plastic and decided to not install it for some reason. Unlike some of the reviews of competitive items I didn't have any trouble with the piston conflicting with the cable. Mine works perfectly and starts the controlled drop almost from the point at which the gate opens. Highly recommended. Further comments: my truck is a 2022. You need a pretty stout Torx 50 bit, also an M-6 hex wrench. Those weren't included. That's about it...literally took 10 minutes. (edited to correct model year)
