Brought to you by 1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet.
In this video, we're going to show you how to remove and put back on the rear hatch support struts. These are the gas struts that hold your hatch up. If you're having issues with your hatch sagging down, this is what you need to do. The only tool you'll need is a small flat-blade screwdriver.
If your hatch sags, you've probably got your own Swiffer Sweeper or whatever type item to hold up the hatch. What you want to do to fix this is, you want to replace these gas struts here. You'll either want something to hold up your tailgate, or somebody helping you out. You just pry out a little clip here. Then, once you pry out that clip, it comes off. Then, do the same thing up here. Pry the clip off, and the strut comes off.
Your new one you just pop on. Make sure the clips are on there. Lift up your tailgate. Pop it on. Then you're all set.
We hope this video helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet. Please feel free to call us toll-free, 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the Internet and in person.

Ordered these hatch shocks for my chevy trailerblazer. They were delivered in 3 days and fit perfectly. Yes I recommend ordering these shocks. It would have been nice if the had a 2 pair set for the rear hatch and glass.

This was exactly what my wife's envoy needed, she was constantly getting hit on the head with the old pair. Very easy to install, took me literally five minutes. The only thing, is that these work so good, that she needs to hang on the rear door to close it.

My hatch started coming down more and more when it was cold out then all the time ...Until I bought this set Watched a video and in 5 minutes I was playing a whole new Game it goes up by itself and it is better than when I first Got My SAAB and I have been Buying Parts Here for all My Vehicles for Years they are awesome with supplying Whatever you need at a Great Price. As long as they Keep Pricing The Items like this more and more People will fix their cars own their own again...it has all the pieces even though it says you may need to use your old parts Just Pop the Clips off your old one any way you want with a flathead screwdriver then just punch the new ones right on the ball ends and done Just use something to support the hatch while working and do one side at a time really only minutes to do.
Great purchase

The product was easy to install like 2 minutes for each strut. They appear to be of the same quality and they work better than the ones I took off which I assume are original so about 11 years old now. So great lets hope we get another 10 years or more.
1 A were great the original set were lost in the mail, one call and the new ones arrived in a week no quibble just great friendly service
Perfect fit

This is my first time buying from A1 auto. The overall experience was great would recommend them to anyone. Shipping was fast and the product seems to be well made. I installed the lifting shocks on a chevy trailblazer and it took me about 5 minutes. I will definitely check with them again when buying parts next time.

Install easy and work great. My rear door started to sag and eventually just would not stay up. If I needed to hands to hold what I was loading in, I needed a third hand to hold the door up. No more struggles now.
