A lowering mechanism for a tailgate of a vehicle comprises a spring housing, a spring, and a flexible cable. The spring housing is preferably mounted under a lip of the truck box. The spring extends coaxially between a proximal and distal end of the tube. The flexible cable has a first end attached to the tailgate and a second end attached to the coil spring adjacent the distal end of the tube. The cable extends coaxially through the spring and the tube. The spring retards movement of the tailgate to a generally horizontal open position.
