Tailgate Springs are a helical or spiral coil that store energy when twisted. Once twisted, resistance is applied in the direction of the wind (either left or right).
This force twists the coils tighter, in turn reducing the spring diameter and making the body longer.
(popularly used for ei. horsefloat,car trailer or equipment ramps, subject to weight)
