I hit my head on my lift gate all the time. Might want to post in the 95-01 Explorer section. We do tailgates in this section.

Someone bumped my wife's new car with a shopping cart yesterday. I was a little annoyed but glad I had this thread to share it with everyone.

Are you talking about one of these things for the support struts?

Its hard to tell when someone posts a three letter thread and then never elaborates, but I think that is what he is looking for.

Yeah, you can get universal replacement strut mount balls on eBay (and at most auto parts stores) for around $15 for two, but who knows what the PO is actually talking about. A man (or woman) of few words.

He probably got his Facebook account mixed up with the forum he joined but never posted in before. I think he should be censored, he talks too much.
