Dont hit your head

[boomboom]

I changed the rear window struts today, AAHHH no more hitting my head.If you have a 4X4 you want the 2X4 struts to raise the deck lid higher.Ford # YC3Z-78406A10-AA you need two of coarse.About $50 for the pair,+- $10 depends on who ya know.The 2X4 struts will raise the lid about 4 in. higher when open so check for garage door clearance before opening.As if I can get mine in the garage [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/depressed.gif[/img]
Getting an extra hand when changing them helps too.

What about a set of good old platform shoes so you can reach the dang handle now! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif[/img]

Well to make a long story short I was becoming more wary of the 14,000 mile Firerocks so I upgraded to 285 TKO's and the stock rear springs were resting to the point of front to rear was about level so I had SDHQ install a set of F350 blocks during our vacation last August while out west for two weeks.

I was going to purchase the 4x2 lift back struts prior to the trip tho [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
