[ElMartillo]

Best meaning works well at a good (low) price.

Thanks!

I forget which ones i got off mcmaster carr. They bolted up to factory mounts/balls and I got the ones that are slightly higher load so it holds up well.

Been awhile.

Buy them locally (as it were). I have a set and they have held up well for 2x years, and open 4" higher than stock, so you don't crack your head on the hatch.

Just bought and installed these Tuff Support Liftgate Struts and they work great so far, and lift the gate ALL the way up

+3 on eBay... Liftgate Depot is the company name is I remember correctly and have worked flawlessly for years. I would get they higher PSI rating ones as in the cold (like this weekend when I took the dogs out and it was 20*) they take a bit to fully extend. Will get up to about level with the roof but takes another minute or two for it to go completely up.

I actually did get mine from liftsupportdepot, but they were 50 bucks and change to my door, and for that, I'd shop local if I could help to.

 

[LAMBCRUSHER]

boy oh boy, tho, it is nice having a liftgate that you don't have to lift

Kudo to Cruiseryard. Did mine a year ago, and work awesome, greatS.

I used the Mcmaster Carr struts. They fit perfectly. I don't recall the part# however.

x2 on these. You have to step out of the way once you open the latch or you'll catch it on the chin.

Was just looking at my hatch lift struts yesterday, the originals are finally dead. Weak at best when it's warm, zero function in the cold.

Didn't see these on the CY website, did you call to order?

That link is broken, and I can't find them to buy them again. Does this means they're unavailable now?
