Oo
I have the metal redline replacement. I Haven't needed them yet, but I will see if they fit my May 22 build
Anyone that didn't fit, take strut to hardware store and see what size it is
Edit: mine don't fit, different thread
I guess next step/fix/alternative would be

I was going to tag you in on this for your thoughts. Thanks for the reply and clarification.Hello Everyone,
We have received feedback from customers that Ford has changed the gas springs used in the tailgate and that "sometimes" the end fittings do not work. It seems that "some" gas springs have different threads on each end. I am not sure if Ford has multiple suppliers for the gas springs or if they made a running change. The only way to know for sure is to take off the end fittings from your current gas springs and confirm they are M6x1 thread (the same as our metal end fittings). It's odd because the M6x1 thread is the industry standard for end fittings on gas springs.
