It goes between the body and the bottom of your tailgate to give it assist when closing your tailgate so it's not so heavy. They are tricky to deal with
 
hmmmm

ok
you guys are right that tailgate weighs a ton....all I have is the rod portion not the piece at the end...

do either of you know where I could see a picture of this thing on the tail gate?

I m sorry I just cannot even picture where it would fit...or how it works.

I m kinda slow that way, public school education and all.

Thanks a bunch for the quick replies too!
 
Here is what the FSM has for tailgate torsion bar.
BTW, this is a PITA to remove and replace!
