Review on Subaru Outback Tailgate Lift Supports by Daniel Roe

This does not include the brackets and you will have to cut the ball joints out of the old bearings to use them - not worth saving another $30 the dealer charges for the ones that include the brackets ! And when you unscrew the housings to replace the ball and bracket with new ones, the threads do not match. You shouldn't advertise them as Outback 2015 compatible without saying you have to cut open the case to use them. And this metal, by the way, is really strong and thick.
