hicksi Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Hey all! Right I need some help. Since I've had the car I've noticed (looking from the rear forwards) the right hand side of the tail gate is higher/out of alignment. Noticed this today. (See pics) I have a suspicion feeling the right hand side strut bracket is the wrong way up. The bend should be facing up like the left, not down. Can anyone tell me which is right? Thanks so much in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Well one is definitely wrong, spin it round and find out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack94 Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Yup right one is the wrong way round & left one is correct, very common mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hicksi Posted September 13, 2020 Author Share Posted September 13, 2020 Thanks guys, spot on. I assume one of the previous owners made this mistake when fitting new gas struts. Luckily it hasn't damaged the car. There are some marks but the bodywork hasn't deformed on the other side... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Flip the R/H bracket and you will be golden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
