Cheap easy 220 rear hatch gas shock replacement.
In my quest to keep prices down I've discovered a couple ways to modify newer parts to fit the 120/220.
This is the latest.
A new gas shock for the rear hatch is about $100.00
A good junkyard 240 shock can be easily modified, cost: under $10

About 15 minutes with a rat tail file and you've got it.
