Rear hatch struts. BUSTED!!

I have a ZR28 spoiler ontop of my oem spoiler and it finally wore the AC-Delco struts out. ANYBODY know a place that sells HEAVY DUTY struts that will work on a 94 camaro?

Re: Rear hatch struts. BUSTED!!

Compared to the weight of the whole hatchback I don't think the weight of the additional spoiler part would cause the struts to give out much sooner. If those are the original struts you should be happy they lasted that long, I have already replaced the ones in my 99.

I orginally bought a pair off ebay and one of em broke the first time i opened the hatch after the install so be careful if you get them off ebay. I ended up buying them from Pep Boys and havent had any problems with them. If they are the stock ones the torx screws are a bit stubborn on comming out.
