A tailgate lift is described which may install on a vehicle using a standard trailer hitch receiver and allows the operator to lift large and heavy items from ground level to the cargo compartment of the vehicle. This tailgate lift may utilize a cable winch and a series of pulleys to lift the loading platform from ground level to the cargo compartment and back down to ground level. While lowered, raised, or at any other position the tailgate lift is capable of holding the loading platform horizontal and parallel to the ground as best possible to maintain the cargo on the loading platform. The loading platform may fold vertical for storage, transport, and installing purposes.
