Been needing rear lift struts for my 07 Denali and will definitely need stronger ones after sound deadening the rear gate. Anyone have a good source for upgraded weight capacity struts that aren't junk?

Have you tried just replacing them with new ones? My hatch takes alot of force to pull it down since I replaced mine with some from Rockauto. I think they were monroes. Mine is an 04 but I don’t think that should matter and I’m 6’7 275. Incase you were wondering if I was a little guy. LOL.

We put new factory ones on ours recently and they take a bit more effort than the originals. The originals were getting weak in the cold, but fine during warmer weather. I reckon if you only added about 10 pounds or so the oem would be fine.
