🚪 Reliable Rear Hatch Support for Santa Fe 2007-2012 | Tailgate Assist | Maxpow Lift Supports (2pcs) PM1017 Review

Tailgate pillars are exactly as described and fit my 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe perfectly. They arrived quickly and were easy to assemble. It only took me about five minutes to swap out the old racks for the new ones. Most other vendors charge you the same amount per rack.

They are slightly stronger than the OEM so the tailgate opens fully, however as lift increases the force required to close the tailgate increases. My wife is 105 pounds and can close it but it takes a little effort. Unfortunately, they're made in China, so I expect them to blow up and blow off…

Maxpow Compatible with Hyundai Santa Fe Lifting Gate Bars work better than the original. I removed a post by removing 2 clips (one behind each pin on the frame) and separating each end of the post from the mounting ball; I cleaned each of the two ball studs and then applied some chassis grease to each ball; put some chassis grease in the holes at each end; and planted each end on the corresponding sphere of the frame; Then I took the rod out of the hatch, opened and closed the hatch 4 times; I…
