Rear door lift shocks

My rear door is getting harder and harder to open and know the shocks are about gone on them, so I stop by the local parts dept.......... ....
$125.00 each! (and thats with my military discount!)

Please tell me that this price is wrong or that you can use those generic ones you see at Autozone. I'm willing to do some retrofitting on the universal ones to make them work.
Anybody replace theirs lately?

Any help/info is appreciated.

I'd be interested as well. Ever since I added a decent amount of sound deadening my hatch opens very slowly and doesn't open all the way.

I'd be interested in stronger ones, not just the same old stock ones.

Was that Denbigh Toyota? If so, it's probably the best price you will find locally for a new part...

Would you guys be interested in HOOD SHOCKS for the hood? This would mean you wouldn't need that hood prop anymore.

I still am working on some ideas and have some time to work on this project again.

Hi there, I have 2 sets of those lift shocks(used) laying around, I can let you have it for $124.99 each, sounds better!!!?? I am just kidding, you can have one sets of them for free if you are willing to wait since I am away. I will be back at the end of August and you can just pay me the shipping cost and get your freebie!!!
