Ford Excursion rear window lift struts

I picked up the lift struts for the Ex today.

I have a 4WD 05 Eddie Bauer.

Every time I get anything in or out of the truck I would hit my head because it just wasn't going up high enough. I'm 6'4" by the way.

So I ordered a set of the struts for the 2WD Excursions because they are slightly longer. I learned that from this wonderful site.

So I just installed them on the Ex in the driveway and now I have head clearance!

I wouldn't have known about this lil mod if it wasn't for this site so I just wanted to pass on the info and say THANK YOU!

Here are some side by side pics of the original ones I took off beside one of the new ones I just put on so you can see the difference.

This is the Ford part number if anyone else is interested.

Curious, I think you're the first to go with OEM instead of off of ebay, Amazon, or the at the corner Autozone, mind if I ask how much Ford charged you?
