Tailgate hinges

It seems to me that at one time I saw a set of "hinges" for a tailgate that would help support the tailgate when opening and closing it so it is not so heavy. I can't find them anywhere.

Not too big of a deal for me, but my young son has a tough time opening the gate to get his hockey bag in. I'm afraid he's gonna drop the gate on his head.

I just saw something like that the other day searching through TruckAddOns website. Take at look at this Hoppy one. I don't know anything about it beyond what the page states, I just happened to run across it.
