2 Issues with 08 Expedition

I have an 08 Expedtion that I have a couple of issues with. The first is with the power liftgate making a loud moaning sound when it opens and closes. I'm pretty sure I need to replace the strut that comes out of the back panel. Does anyone know what that part number is?
The second issue has to do with the interior lighting. My lights flicker from time to time and then just don't come on at times. The dash cluster and radio lights will flicker when I'm driving and the dome lights flicker when the doors are open or they just don't come on. Using the dimmer switch the lights work just fine and I don't get a message saying my door is ajar so I don't believe it's the door switch. Does anyone have any ideas what could cause this?

Might be a bad ground somewhere.

Maybe try to move wires around a little under the dash while watching the lights and see if they flicker.
