VW T5 / T5.1 Transporter Uprated Tailgate Struts 1250N Heavy Duty for Bike Rack

Transporter HQ - VW T5 / T5.1 Upgraded Tailgate Struts

This listing is for a PAIR of tailgate struts, with 1250N of pressure

If you got a bike rack on the rear of your tailgate, then upgraded gas strut’s are for you!

Our struts have got extra pressure inside the strut compared to standard/original so the tailgate wont keep trying to shut itself when you have got a bike rack or extra weight on the tailgate. We have found even adding a tailgate curtain pod is enough weight to stop the tailgate from opening fully.

The struts are easy to fit by pushing the end of the strut over the factory fitted ball end. 

Fitting should take about 5 minutes max. Check out our YouTube video if you aren't sure. 

Compatibility: 

  • VW Transporter T5 or T5.1 - Does not fit California or Caravelle models.
  • 2003-2015 Models with Tailgate
