Lift Supports Depot

Mostly everything was fine but the openings on the bushings on the supports that I bought are ever so slightly smaller than what was being replaced so they required some real effort to get on and are a little bit too stiff. But ultimately they worked well enough.

StrongArm brand. Not quite as good as I had hoped. The first problem is the ends were put together wrong. One side is 8mm the other 10mm. It is always recommended to install rod down. One I was able to reverse but the other was overtightened with lock-tite that I couldn't remove them. While they do hold the hood up, they do not raise the hood. I have to push it ALL the way up manually. Otherwise it just falls back down violently. It does concern me that a hard wind might be enough to trip them and make the hood fall on me if I be under it. I'll still be using a safety stick for longer repairs. Works for now, not bad enough to send back but would not buy again.

I received the order, and the lifts have been installed. After installing new weatherstripping, my Yakama Rocket Box is as good as new. The lady I talked to on the phone was a huge help in guiding me to the correct lift. Thank you very much.

Their website lists numerous carriers, but not Amazon, although Amazon delivered my shipment. There are a number of businesses, companies, and corporations I will not patronize (to include associations/affiliations), and Amazon is one of them. Amazon should have been listed as a carrier. If I would have known they utilized Amazon as a carrier, I would have not purchased the product from Lift Supports Depot. Product is great as was the price, and the website was just fine.

Purchased a tailgate lift support for my 2014 Tundra October 2024 and it failed December 2025. Lasted just enough to be out of warranty. Could be the one off but too much of coincidence. Going back to Toyota parts.
