Experience Smooth, Controlled Bed Access and Eliminate Dangerous Tailgate Drops 

Bring premium, effortless utility to your truck bed with the Genuine MOPAR Tailgate Strut Damper (Part #68362518AA). This heavy-duty hydraulic assist cylinder is meticulously engineered to control the downward momentum of your tailgate, allowing it to glide open safely and hands-free. By absorbing the heavy impact of a falling gate, it protects your vehicle's hinges, cables, and rear body structure from severe structural strain while preventing accidental injuries to anyone standing behind your truck. 

What separates us from third-party alternatives is our strict focus on internal valving precision and thermal consistency. Cheap, generic aftermarket dampers often use low-grade seals and standard oils that freeze up in the winter, cause the tailgate to drop violently in the summer, or suffer from premature hydraulic fluid leaks. This factory-certified strut is manufactured with a premium steel rod and specialized multi-lip seals designed to deliver consistent, fluid-dampened resistance through extreme temperature swings and thousands of cycles. 

Don't deal with the jarring crash of an unassisted truck bed or risk damaging your rear quarter panels. Upgrade your cargo area with an authentic, direct-fit engineering solution, supported by our precise inventory tracking and ultra-fast fulfillment. 

Genuine Mopar Tailgate Strut Damper (Part #68362518AA)
Eliminate the heavy, sudden drop of your truck's tailgate with this genuine OEM Mopar tailgate strut damper. Engineered to provide smooth, hydraulic assistance, this gas-charged shock controls the descent of your tailgate for hands-free convenience, preventing wear on your vehicle’s hinges and protecting anyone standing behind your bed.
What sets us apart is how we support your truck's customization and maintenance goals. Whether you are replacing a worn-out component or adding this hidden OEM upgrade to a trim that didn't come with it out of the box, our team provides expert fitment checking to ensure complete accuracy. Unlike generic external assists that clutter your truck bed, this authentic Mopar part mounts cleanly away from sight. We rigorously verify the pressurized seal of every unit before shipping and wrap it in heavy-duty, impact-resistant packaging so it arrives ready to restore premium, smooth function to your truck.
