Introducing the new GoWesty super heavy duty rear hatch strut. We engineered these struts in only one force. After much trial and error, we found what we consider to be the "perfect" resistance. We were tired of dealing with hatch struts that didn't work properly and didn't last long enough... thus, the GoWesty hatch strut was born.
Buy them individually for use with your one remaining good rear hatch strut or spring for a pair! We think you'll like the results. Each one of our struts comes with a circlip.
Fitment note: All Vanagons (1980-91), left (driver) and/or right (passenger) side. Note that you must remove and delete your existing washers to install this strut. We highly recommend purchasing circlip pliers for easier installation. Alternatively, a small pick awl can be used to install the clips as shown in the video.
These struts come with a limited LIFETIME WARRANTY.
