Landscape Contractor,

August 25, 2010

By Luxland

from Toronto, Canada

"Excellant product, I had to alter the installation slightly to accomodate my trailer but it was no big deal and it works great. I simply use my foot to gentle lift the trailer ramp a couple inches off the ground and the gorilla lift basically does all the work to lift and close the ramp. No more more bending down to lift my heavy ramp up to close it. When your opening and closing your ramp 12 or 15 times a day like I do, this lift makes a huge difference to my back at the end of the day."

Best Purchase yet from Northern Tool,

August 19, 2010

By KAZMAN

"This thing REALLY works as advertised. We added it to our Golf Cart Trailer. It was a real challenge for my wife to lift and lower the gate on our trailer until I installed this system ........... WOW ......... one handed up and one handed down!!! Get some REALLY good drill bits if you install it yourself and plan to drill progressively larger holes if your trailer is made of good steel. Drilling the holes was the difficult part - the instructions are accurate and work exactly as described. GREAT PURCHASE!!!"

Good as advertised,

By tractorhauler

from Roanoke Va

"I installed this on a 16' ramp-gate trailer. I was still able to lift the gates now, but I also looked into the future and saw a day I would have problems lifting them. After installing them and trying them out I wondered why I didn't do this years ago. Great product and good instructions, I only modified them a little ( my own ideas to work better with my setup )"

Great Back Saver Product,

June 1, 2010

By saveaback

from North Rose, NY

"I bought the Gorilla Lift a few years ago for our landscape trailer and it has been well worth the money!! The gate is very heavy and really needed two people to lift it safely. Now with the Gorilla Lift I can raise the gate effortlessly with just one hand. This product is a must for anyone with a trailer that has back trouble and a cheap investment for those that don't to stay that way! The only thing I would suggest is some quick disconnect pins on the cables for the gate to make gate removal easier but it's not a big deal."

You can set the rails anywhere along the sides of your trailer to make it work, and work , it does. I don't know how long the rails are but my brother inlaw has a completely different trailer set-up and it works great for him to. I think outr trailer is 12 fir X 6 ft and the side rail is about 2 ft high.

The rails on the tailgate lifts are 72 inches long, it is recommended for trailer tailgates 4 to 6 feet tall, and a maximum tailgate weight of 300 pounds.
