Review: Added support for tailgate. - Very easy to install. 2 of the 4 bolts (the 2 closest to the tailgate hinges) are too long for this application. When torqued to specs, they pop the inside tailgate panel off. I cut those 2 bolts down in order to close the inside panel all the way.
Review: value-effectivness - Two bolts (top/bottom) closest to gate hinges are TOO long and push the inside gate molded cover away from the gate. Had to substitute shorter bolts. Other than that, great product..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Added support for tailgate.
*by C***H on April 27, 2023*

Very easy to install. 2 of the 4 bolts (the 2 closest to the tailgate hinges) are too long for this application. When torqued to specs, they pop the inside tailgate panel off. I cut those 2 bolts down in order to close the inside panel all the way.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ value-effectivness
*by R***. on December 22, 2023*

Two bolts (top/bottom) closest to gate hinges are TOO long and push the inside gate molded cover away from the gate. Had to substitute shorter bolts. Other than that, great product..

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Simple installation. No real complaints
*by M***. on June 29, 2025*

Relatively easy to install and I feel better having a 37” spare on the back with this reinforcement bracket on. Hardest part was getting the spare back on. I wish the bolt heads were black though. Ordered some black rubber covers to fix that but overall pretty happy with this.
