Where might be a good place to get those trunk shocks that will work in place of the torsion bars for the rear deck lid?

Here's another idea that I've not seen posted here.
I use old worn out struts from a Ford Bronco II we had years ago. Ford made some perfect sized 90 degree brackets and the longer struts will support the weight of the rear lid and the top too. Yes, I made brackets to go inside the bottom of the lid and mount the top there. Top then comes up with the lid! It makes access to the rear trunk a lot easier, you don't have to try and hold the top up when getting things in and out. Sorry no pictures, it's actually kind of embarrassing, I'm a hack and they could be made a lot nicer, but it works. |
