Hey guys,

I had her into the dealer for a few things recently, one of which was a "popping" liftgate strut. The dealer replaced both liftgate struts for me, but when I got it back, now I swear that the liftgate doesn't open as high as it used to - I'm thinking they possibly installed the wrong length liftgate struts?

I double checked with the dealer and they claim they have put the right ones on, but I'm still not sure...

So I measured from the ground to the very edge of the liftgate when it was fully opened and it is 75 & 3/4 inches - can you guys help me verify this the correct height?

Thanks,
Dan
