Default hatch shock struts gone bad
I'm sick of using my head to prop open the glass hatch on my 96 Blazer. I guess the shock stuts or whatever they are called are worn out. Is there any adjustment to them or do I need to replace them with new ones.
Thanks for the help
Ken

You've got to replace them. Most auto stores have them, if not, Rockauto.com has them... that's where i got mine.

Thanks for the quick response AND for the RockAuto.com referral -- saved me $15.00 over Ebay.
For anyone else in the same situation, RockAuto calls this part Lift Support.
