      Comments about Strong Arm Lift Support:

      Replaced the 6 yr old lift struts on the back gate of my '05 Grand Caravan. Did not realize how bad the old ones were till I replaced them. The old ones were creaking and would barely lift the gate with assistance.
      Install was pretty simple, but having a second person to help makes it easier. when one is removed the gate drops and you need to hold it up to install it. I did it in the parking lot of the parts store. I needed a special star bit to do it but other than that no issue.
      Would buy these again no problem. Still working well when we sold the vehicle 3 years after install.

              I forgot how the liftgate worked years ago! Went from it falling on me (with the worn out lifters), to popping up on its own (almost caught me on the chin!) BIG IMPROVEMENT!

                      This lift is pretty easy to install but get a second person to hold the liftgate up slightly to make sure the mounting bolt starts in the threads straight.
