hey dude, havent posted any pics of my 16 runner but hit me up on IG @halfpricepedis and gimme a holler. *****in build tho
The rear shocks seem to be just fine. The rear hatch still opens is self up after you get it about half way up. And it's still has plenty of pressure to keep it up. One of the wife biggest complaints was the rear hatch was hard to close, it's a lot easier now.
It's just a matter of time. Soon, you'll be hitting your head on the hatch door and telling your wife to stop slamming it.

I just replaced mine with stronger shocks a few months ago, stock lasted much longer than I expected. My wife could barely reach it anyway and rarely drives my truck though...:lookout:
Please don't waste your money on the expensive Gobi shocks...These are what you seek:
Strong Arm 6156 Gas Charged Liftgate Lift Support | Cadillac | Chevrolet | GMC
When you order, you must put in the comments section the following: "Convert to 10mm straight ends"
I have been running these for about a year and they are a good bit stronger than the stock struts.
Did both of you just order the shocks from gobi or get them some where else?
How much do you think it would cost to make front supports? Also a removable crossbar? Rack looks great!
Sorry just saw you posted on here. Not sure what you are asking about front supports, could you please clarify?
Sure her is what I'm looking at

Are these just sitting on the rain channel with 3m tape? I'm assuming you welded them on. Mine currently sit on my roof but I don't want to have to deal with my roof chipping cracking etc from any type of force. Even though I don't put anything on the front by my wind deflector.... In just trying to get ideas so I can fix my front supports when I have time
