tailgate shocks

how hard is it to change out the tailgate struts that hold the tailgate up? I found the struts for about $50.00 a piece. also do you have a recommended supplier for parts?

Thanks

RE: tailgate shocks

It's fairly easy, instructions are on Bay 13.

50 is pretty expensive in my opinion, Groton or IPD are probably cheaper than that.

RE: tailgate shocks

Cross,
Go to ebay,There is a set listed from a place called eEuroparts.com (item#8010330416) for $44.90, free s&h. I have ordered from these people and they took good care of me. Good quality parts good price and same day shipping. As soon as I get a couple of other issues straightened around I think I'll grab a set for my wagon.
