- 1994 Explorer
I thought I was making a simple repair to my 94 Explorer as the OE struts were not holding up my lift gate and now I am in a bit of trouble. Installed the two new struts on the lift gate in less than 10 minutes and when I went to close the lift gate I heard a rap.
I opened it back up and found the passenger side, top part of the new strut was hanging off. It appears that the stiffness of the new strut broke off the zerk-like nob which the top of the strut attaches too. It must of been weaken by some rust.
Does anyone know where I can get a replacement (after market) for this plate that attaches to the inside of the lift gate which holds the top of the strut in place? THANKS!
