Estate tailgate struts - anyone got a source?
Or a reference to something from another model that will fit (preferably something a bit more robust). Mine are definitely on the way out and it's only a matter of time before the tailgate clouts me on the head.

In the current climate I wouldn't hold them to next day delivery though.
They also do a walk in re-gas service of your own struts if you live loacally, Mathew?

That's great - thanks. I like the fact they can re-gas them to be a bit stiffer, too. I've got a couple of spares, and I'm occasionally not too far from Derby, so it's got to be worth a go.Defender110 wrote:http://www.sgs-engineering.com/pages/st ... n/range/BX
