Back liftgate gas support cylinders - where can I get those for the best price?
Mine are flat, and OEM are way expensive!
Thanks,

Val

Did you get the right fit - any mods before installation needed?

r those shocks from ebay any good? How do they compress down, is it only when they are on?

NO - in fact most stores do not carry those.

Perfectly -- I think they are OEM products anyway.

Thanks in advance!

take one out, run down to autozone or checker or something and find one comparible to it, make sure the throw is the same and the mounting surfaces are similar and it should work.. did that with mine about a year and a half ago.. no problems at all (cept when i was installing em and had to hold my hatch up with my head... heavy stuff yo)

sorry for dragging this up from the dead....

i just bought a set of these from rock auto and there is no way they will fit.

too long and they have the wrong mounting brackets.

do you have pics of the ones they sent you? can you send me the part numbers off of the actual lifts?

There are some brand new ones on ebay for like $60, I remember when I went to the dealer to get mine they wanted like $130 each. I found some where cheaper, just cant remember that was like 5 years ago.

Another member for some reason had a problem with rock-auto. I don't know why, but it seems you buy the right part, and they send you the wrong one. You really need to cantact a "higher" power in the rock-auto system to see what the deal it.

Also, wind, i PMed you.
