Liftgate strap?

[Skurvy_Pirate]

Does anyone know if there is a liftgate strap available for the 2012? We have a 2000 and it has one, but the new one we just got does not. It looks like there is a little panel where it should be, so I am hoping there is the option of one.

Otherwise, none of the trim come with one for the 10' - 13.
14's do.

My 2014 has one. Not sure about previous years.

Awesome, thanks! I will look into doing something like this then.

My early '13 SR5 4x4 w/Convenience Package certainly has one. I was shocked when I saw Antman's thread where he had to make one as I assumed all of us had them. I guess I got lucky

2004 4th Gen 4Runner Rear Lift Gate Strap Replacement DIY

My 4th gens rear lift gate strap (the one you pull down on) was gross, and even a little rusty. Checking online a company named Agency 6 sales replacements (that look dumb) for $20. OEM is hard to find, and expensive also. No thanks. Decided to make my own.

I went to a local store, bought some 1" strap for $2. It was really easy to remove the old strap, just pop out the plastic cover and remove the one bolt holding it in. Then I cut the old strap off the hardware, polished up the hardware, and hand sewed a new strap to the same dimensions as the old one. Just reused the old hardware. Whole thing probably took 20 minutes.

Looks way better than the Agency 6 strap, and costs way less.
