I actually just did the hydraulics on my rear liftgate and glass on Monday for my 2008. I didn't go with anything fancy like these guys though since I like to keep everything simple except my suspension.bozoneX wrote: ↑Wed Mar 16, 2022 6:37 pmThis thread is horrible. 15 pages and there is no place to find specs, application for models or years, or part numbers in one location.

My 2010 Pathfinder S has hatch struts that mostly match the length of McMaster number 9416K148,
extended length 18.19" or 18.18" depending where you look and 7.87" travel. These have M8 threads, but my sockets/end fittings have M6 threads, so they can't be reused. The ball is 10mm. The end fitting is 30mm (1.18") long, of which 18mm (.71") from the threads to the center of the ball and 12mm (.47") to the rounded end. This matches 9416K76 end fitting. For any of you McCarthy-era stiffs who want metric parts listed in inches, McMaster will be right up your alley.
The glass struts are close to McMaster part 9416K16 gas springs with 13.74" extended length. 5.47" travel. These come with M6 threads, which match my stock end fittings.
