This is the real deal – a genuine Honda OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) part. The part number is 74820-TK8-A11, and it's the Right Tailgate Open Stay Assembly. You might know it as the tailgate support rod or prop rod. Its job is simple but crucial: it holds your tailgate securely in the open position when you're loading or unloading, so it doesn't come crashing down on you. If yours is broken, bent, or not holding anymore, this is the exact part to get. Because it's genuine Honda, you're guaranteed a perfect fit, correct strength, and reliable function, just like the one that came on your vehicle from the factory. Don't risk a generic part that might fail. Installing it is usually straightforward. Look up your specific Honda model (often Pilots, Ridgelines, etc.) to confirm compatibility, but if this is your part number, you can buy with confidence. Keep your tailgate – and your fingers – safe.
