StrongArm 6550 liftgate arm

Purchased these but I beleive my C4 fab ladder will not allow my trunk to open wide enough to install them. Any suggestions?

 

Didnt realize ladders inhibit the hatch. My gobi ladder doesnt.

How do you mean? The shocks dont support the extra weight?

 

I think maybe my first message doesn't make any sense at all.

I installed these. Was pretty easy. They work very well. Had to push the hatch up kinda hard on the install.

Got pics on the ladder being in the way? hard to picture this.

 

I’ll post a photo when I get off work, but I have the front runner rack and it seems like the rack and ladder make contact before the liftgate can open all the way. 22.56inches is the length of the struts but the distance between ball joints are roughly at 22inches

 

Ooof. I've always worried about mixing brands of ladders and racks for this reason. Standing by for pictures.

Buyers beware. Sounds like the front runner rack + C4 ladder is not a winning combination.

 

Oh wow. Sorry to see that @WhoDoiFollow

Looks like you'll have to remove stuff to replace the struts.
