   Holy smokes, these things are amazing! Easiest, best ROI upgrade I’ve ever made on a vehicle.Ok, so I’m 6’6+”, so I bang my head on things frequently, but the tailgate on my new-to-me Excursion seemed ridiculously low. it was the only thing about the new tow rig that I hated, and I HATED it. A little poking around the Internet led to discussions of replacing the struts. I wasn’t sure it was going to make much difference, but for the money, might as well try it, right?Night and day difference. No, the tailgate isn’t way over my head, but neither are any door ways. But if you’ve ever been annoyed by the low height of the factory struts, these things are a revelation.Yes, the door will tailgate will open more quickly now. Yes, if you park inside with a low ceiling, the tailgate will bump it. Yes, if you’re shorter than average, you’ll have to add a pull strap or something. But these struts are complete game changers, and they are the length that SHOULD have been installed by the factory.If only making the roof “rack” functional were as easy!As a tip, I looked around my garage and found an old I-beam level — I think it was 4′, mighta been 3′ — for my Ex, it wedged in just perfectly between the bumper and a spot on the tailgate, and held the it up nicely: The replacement was dead simple. Lever off both ends of both struts with a screwdriver, pop on one new strut, do the other side. Your mileage will likely vary, and having an extra pair of hands is probably mandatory for those of normal, not freakish and counterproductive, height, but it’s the work of 15 minutes… if you take 10 to step back and appreciate the change.If you’re even kindasorta thinking about it: Do it. Right now. Click Buy. You’ll be thrilled.

   If you have already read the reviews and are still questioning if this is a product worth your investment, just stop. Purchase them.Before I even received them in the mail I had an email from the customer service department letting me know I could reach out if I had any issues at all. Pretty impressive since I have 2 day Prime shipping.Package is straightforward with very clear instructions on how to replace.A simple flat screwdriver is all you need for replacement, although I would recommend having a rubber mallet or an extra shoe to help bump off the old ones (mine were original from 2000 and pretty much stuck on).All said the install took me 10 minutes. 8 minutes of which was trying to figure out how to hold the gate up once I removed the old ones (It is fairly heavy, and you want to be VERY careful not to let it fall shut or the glass will shatter). I finally put a chair behind the bumper, put one foot on the bumper, one on the chair, and used my back to hold the gate while installing the new supports. The gate with these struts lifts much higher than stock, so you might want to spend a couple minutes in setup considering how to accomplish your support (A friend would be the easiest method).As I mentioned, the installation of the actual struts could probably be done in under a minute for both of them if you had a friend to hold the gate. You just make sure you use the screwdriver to lightly lift a retainer, and slip these struts on.Final result is very nice. You actually make your rear cargo area more usable due to the ease of loading (you could use a forklift to load once these are on). The gate lift smoothly and closes securely. No more cold mornings when the gate won’t stay open while you are trying to load up.As others mentioned, if you are shorter you might consider a rope pull to assist you in closing. I am 6’2″ and find it great. My wife is 5’0″ and looks like the State Farm commercial where the lady is jumping for the dollar at the end of a fishing line “Oops…almost had it”.Overall….a great product at a great price with easy installation and great results. Definitely a must have update for all Excursions.

   These worked well up until recently. One started leaking already. The good thing about these is they allow the liftgate to raise higher so you don’t have to duck under. I will see if they are going to let me return the bad one.

   I’m a bit of a procrastinator and just got these installed today, 2 days short of a year might I add. Takes a little planning to install these but went easily. So nice to open the hatch and not have to open the hatch anymore. It raises itself now. These are awesome for a 2002 Ford Excursion Limited. Highly recommended. Sorry so long to write a review.

   Stop hitting your head on the lift gate if you are tall, these are the fix!! I was ducking with standard replacement cylinders; these lift high enough so that I do not have to duck. Perfect.

   Bought these as the new Excursion I bought had blown rear window struts. Bought these as they were 1.5 inches longer to raise the rear up higher. It seriously makes all the difference in the world! Had these installed in 5minutes. Super easy.
