Strakes Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Ouch. My head hurts. Our 93 Legacy wagon's tailgate lift supports/struts are not holding up their fair share. I have these questions: (1) How hard are the gas charged lift supports to replace? (2) Do they come with all the hardware included or do I need to pop the lift support off of the ball joint with a pickle fork or something? (3) Where's the best place to purchase these lift supports? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strakes Posted February 18, 2005 Author Share Posted February 18, 2005 I got the stuff from 1stsubaruparts. They included everything needed for replacing the lift gate struts for a great price. (Including the ball studs). They were very heplful on the phone answering questions that I had. The replacement was very straight forward and only took 30 minutes to accomplish. Thanks for the help!
