As soon as the weather turned cold my tailgate struts stopped working!
Can anyone give me some advice as to where I might get some and how to replace them.I'm risking decapitation daily!
Thanks

Worth watching this youtube video length 2:34 where the job is described on a Ford Explorer.
You can understand it even with the sound off and very similar job steps in Xantia Estate.
---> Replace Tailgate Strut Support Ford Explorer <---
I replaced one of the struts in mine. I remember that it has 480 N force but don't have the product code.
