🚙 Maxpow Rear Hatch Lift Support Struts Shocks Tailgate Assist Liftgate Hydraulic Cylinder Set for Toyota Highlander 2001-2007 (2pcs) - Part Number: 4598 Review

Perfect fit and now it's like a new sunroof. Ease of installation. Open the hatch and support the hatch with a sturdy bar or 2x4 before removing the old ones. Do this one at a time so the hatch will fall down slower as it falls.

I could have, but my wife refused. With one of these and an old strut, the hatch opens readily and it still takes a bit of work to get past the initial part of the movement where the struts have the most power. .Installation was good and installation was easy if a bit tricky because I kept my head…

Easy to install but after about 3 months my back starts to creak. The screws are tightened, I can't understand what kind of racket is in the back of the car. It took another 3 months to discover that the supports needed to be reinstalled just 6 months ago. For real? removed, took a test drive, now the car behaves calmly. ooooochen. I ordered a Tuff Support Kit. A funny review showed they failed and this person bought Maxpow. maybe they all come from the same factory in China with different…
