I am all for fitting factory mods if possible but this one would require some amount cutting and welding to fit it on a 100.
There is this idea, no clue if there's enough real estate in there or not.

A little assistance to lift it back up would be nice once I get around to installing my storage lid and filling the gate up. I thought there was a lift strut available as well but I can't seem to find it (would one strut of each type achieve this goal or would they cancel each other out?). Is a stronger torsion spring possible or is there a way to put more tension on it?
