Work Truck Lift Gate

What happens here

The Liftgator is designed to slide into the pickup truck's hitch receiver. Identify the correct hole for the hitch pin to ensure the lift gate sits snugly against the truck's rear for stability, preventing vibration or damage during transport. Two jack stands with wheels are then attached to the main structure of the lift gate for added stability and mobility when detached from the truck. One of the jack stands is damaged due to shipping and requires bending back into shape using a pipe.

Goal: Properly install the Liftgator onto the truck's hitch and attach the stabilizing jack stands.
