Is your Land Rover Freelander 2’s (L359, 2006-2014) tailgate getting heavy, not staying up, or dropping on your head? It’s time to replace the gas struts. This Ramor Strutz kit gives you a pair of brand-new boot lid gas springs that match or exceed the original specifications. They’re direct replacements for part numbers LR030618, LR002104, and others. Each strut is 538mm long (center to center), has a stroke of 196mm, a rod diameter of 8mm, and a tube diameter of 18mm, with a strength of 520 Newtons – just like the originals. They’re built from high-quality materials and tested to ensure they perform reliably. We always recommend replacing both struts at the same time, even if only one seems weak, because the other won’t be far behind. Installation is straightforward but please be careful: get someone to hold the tailgate securely for you. Use a small screwdriver to gently release the spring clip on each end of the old strut, then pull it off the ball stud. Press the new ones onto the studs until they click into place. That’s it – your tailgate will lift smoothly and stay up like new. No more head bumps, and your boot is safe and functional again. A simple fix that makes a huge difference!
