Thieman 31633 – LRSD Heavy Duty Kicker Assembly

Restore Peak Performance to Your Thieman Liftgate

Ensure your Thieman LRSD series liftgate operates with the reliability and safety it was designed for with the genuine Thieman Tailgates 31633 LRSD Heavy Duty Kicker Assembly. This critical component is the powerhouse behind the initial platform deployment, providing the necessary force to smoothly swing the platform out from its stowed position. Over time, the original kicker assembly can suffer from metal fatigue and wear due to thousands of cycles under heavy loads, leading to a platform that is difficult to open, sags, or fails to deploy correctly. Replacing a worn or broken unit with this OEM part is not just a repair; it’s an investment in operational efficiency, operator safety, and the longevity of your valuable equipment.

Engineered for Unmatched Durability and Reliability

Constructed from high-strength, corrosion-resistant steel, the 31633 Kicker Assembly is built to withstand the harshest working conditions, from extreme weather to the constant stress of commercial use. Its robust spring mechanism is calibrated to exact factory specifications, guaranteeing the correct amount of force for a smooth, controlled, and predictable deployment every time. By choosing a genuine part from Thieman Tailgates, you eliminate the risks associated with aftermarket parts, such as improper fitment, premature failure, and potential damage to other liftgate components. This direct-fit replacement ensures a seamless installation process, minimizing downtime and getting your vehicle back in service quickly.
