Works best when raising legs

Fits perfectly on a 2002 4runner. A little slow in cold weather, acceleration is required to reach the maximum open position.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Modern

Works great on lifting legs

Purchased on recommendation of a T4R.org user (choose a stronger stand as I live in a colder region). These struts have rejuvenated my tailgate to factory behavior. In cold/snowy weather I didn't notice any drop in lift. I can't report anything about the comparison of summer and winter weather.

Pros
  • Many fit
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Perfect replacement for lifting legs

Fits 3rd Gen 4Runner/Hilux Surf Even with the new OEM cold weather poles, it only opened 3/4 and you had to open the rest fully to avoid the bumping head. It was summer too. These Strongarm replacements are great, installed and they open completely without help. They also worked great in winter. Definitely worth your money!

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly dented

This is not a factory replacement

Pushrod pistons are about 1/2 thicker than my original 1998 4Runner. They do not come with mounting gaskets and washers. That's the problem.

I visited every hardware store within 30 miles of my home and was finally able to put together a nylon insert and washer recommended by a former customer of the same…

Pros
  • One year trial period
Cons
  • Available in white only

Great fit. Good price for a pair. Made in the USA.

Great pair of tailgate stays for the 3rd generation 4th runner. Comes in a handy tube and well packaged. Fits perfectly on my 1999 T4R (SR5 but this one fits any variant). OEM fit and as another reviewer noted, the piston tube is a smaller diameter than stock. I think it looks a little more elegant if that's important to you. The force they provide is quite strong and will lift the gate about 6-8 inches after opening. You need to use some force to close the door after replacement. Holds the…

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Fine
