I have a 04 Titan LE and the tailgate is so heavy.  Most of the time you are letting it down with one hand which is difficult.  My brother  has a 05 Titan and his tailgate gildes down so smoothly.  Can they  fix this for the 04?  Thanks

This subject has been covered. See this link : http://www.nissantitan.info/search.asp?KW=tailgate&SM=1& amp;SI=TC&FM=0&OB=1

Basically it can be done if you can get a parts guy @ your Nissan dealership to look up the parts for you.. But it does require some sheet metal modification behind the passenger side tail light, some drilling and possibly some welding. Or you can buy a relatively cheap aftermarket steel spring assist, which can also be found on threads in the above link...GL
