In this video I show how to replace and install your failed rear hatch/glass lift support struts. The vehicle in this video is a 1995 GMC Suburban but this process is the same for a multitude of cars, trucks and SUV's.

So today I just bought a set of Strong Arm lift support struts part number C4557 from my local Advanced Auto Parts store and when I went to install them they were way too long even though their computer shows that they are a perfect fit for my 97 Tahoe. I wish I would of seen this video before I purchased them. So I took them back and they don't carry the 4650 so I had to order a different brand of lift supports and now i have to pray and hope these other ones are the exact size. If not Amazon here I come.
Sorry about the long comment, just wanted to share the experience I just had.
Thanks dude! I'm teaching myself to repair a 93 Blazer K1500 I recently purchased. This was my first project and your advice likely saved me a trip to the emergency room lol
You just saved me so much money! Thank you for sharing.
Short and helpful. Just that i needed. Thank you
They are simple to replace minimal tools required. Bought similar ones for my 02 blazer Xtreme
Thank you.
Worked like a champ on my 99 Tahoe. I might ad that the bottom connection will rotate in the event the two holes don't face the correct direction from the box. I panicked at first thinking I got the wrong part. Duh.
Great video 👍
Great video thanks.. I'm about to order mine.. thanks once again 👌🏼💯
+ChevyHDss Chevy life Glad I could help!
Hi just bought a second hand Toyota hiace van,the rear door is not in line to the door catcher ,so am hoping to find video that can make it easy for me to replace the tilt strut,cheers
Would it be possible to leave one strut still attached while you replace the other one to be even more cautious?. (While still providing that extra support).
Good video, thanks.
thanks you very much , youre videos help me every single time .
god bless 🙏💙
Do you know if this works for a 88 GMC Jimmy my grandpa gave me the car but the back glass arms are completely gone I use a wooden stick we use to hold our fishing poles I use that as support for the back glass when I need to get something from the trunk area
Did you put the clip back?
Thanks for posting.
Have you ever had issues with your rear glass not opening after you hit the release switch?
Good Work...
Very helpful. However. You didn't mention putting the clips back on
Exactly skipped showing that wtf
Nice Thanks!
Muy bien
Can I do my Chevy Malibu maxx
What lb pressure are these struts
Cant find any videos on the style of gas strut that doesn't have c clamps. Not helpful for my 03 crv.
I took the old SUSPA ones off, re-installed the new SUSPA ones & my Tonneau Cover would NOT go down, I applied a little pressure & that caused the attach brackets to bend... I am one unhappy camper & my problem is NOT solved...
Are they still working
Put the name of the vehicle in the description.
Cool
Those clips rust thru. Be verry carefull not all strut manufacturers use the same preasure in thier struts. Ive replaced more than one backglass because of this.
🔥
You need the clips you took off
The new struts come with their own clips.
