The tailgate on my 4Runner keeps falling down on my head. I replaced them with aftermarket tailgate struts from eBay since the OEM parts are about 5 times the cost of aftermarket one. They are working wonderfully!

I’ve had it with having to muscle my tailgate open and close every time I get in the trunk. It’s about time to change out those 100k+ mile struts with some new ones. OEM ones can be expensive, but these aftermarket options work pretty well.
