2004 Chevrolet Suburban - replaced both window struts and hatch struts

The struts all appeared to be of very good quality. They were easily installed (instructions were included). I replaced the rear window struts one at a time. Removing the old ones only required one hand so I held the window fully open with my other hand. Replacing the struts required both hands so I held the window open with my head. Removing and replacing the rear door hatch required two hands so I used a piece of 1" PVC pipe, with a folded cloth against the door and chocked on the rear mat, to hold the hatch open. I think the whole process, including wiping away all the dust that you discover that never gets cleaned when washing the car, took maybe twenty minutes. Both the window and hatch are now well balanced, not requiring excessive force to close and not springing open too fast. I'm well pleased. The OEM struts lasted, what? thirteen years before they started giving up the ghost, and I expect these from Strongarm to be the last set our Suburban will ever need.Read full review...

2001 Chevrolet Tahoe LT - replacement of Rear Liftgate Hatch Struts

Made in USA and EXCELLENT quality! Super easy to install using only a standard flat blade screwdriver. The listing included instructions with pictures and was very easy to follow. Had the job done in less than 15 minutes. Just a reminder, when you install the new parts you need to have the liftgate opened up fully to line up the strut attachment points. This is because the struts are fully extended and under pressure and you will not be able to push the cylinder rod (silver shiny part) into the cylinder (the black part) by hand to try to line them up. I was by myself (with two people it'd be a snap!) so I used a spare piece of PVC pipe as a brace. Placed one end on the bumper and the other end to hold the door up. Once installed, the liftgate opens and closes smoothly. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!Read full review...

Great quality and craftsmanship

I was blown away by the quality and craftsmanship of these strong arms. I installed them in under three minutes and my 8 year old can open the hatch now. These shocks provide stability and open assist with their power! I'm happy and my family is happy great product and buy!Read full review...

You won't believe how easy they are to replace.

Made in the USA, priced nearly as cheap as the Chinese products, and super easy to replace. Nearly anyone can do it. Saved a hundred bucks and did it myself. No more struggling with a heavy lift gate that won't stay open.Read full review...

2004 Chev Suburban LT hatch lift strut.

Great product. Easy install (see YouTube videos for help). I'd recommend two person install since the hatch is very heavy!! At $29 for the pair for the quality I'd say it's s great value. Very happy!Read full review...

Strongarm Lift Support

I am very pleased with this product. It is built well and when I open my rear hatch (03 Yukon) and lift it up part way, it automatically lifts itself to the full open position. I would recommend this product!Read full review...
