Bring the lift back to your Holden Commodore VE VF Station Wagon tailgate with this pair of tailgate gas struts from Nitro Struts. When the factory struts fail, you're left holding the tailgate up with one hand or wedging it open with whatever's nearby. This pair fixes that properly, for a fraction of the dealer price.
Model series codes in the product title indicate exact fitment. If you're unsure whether this strut fits your specific variant, message us before ordering.

Installation Notes
Tailgate strut replacement is one of the easier DIY jobs on a car — usually 10–15 minutes with no special tools. Open the tailgate fully and prop it securely before starting (a second person makes this much easier). Pop the spring clip on each ball socket, lift the old strut off, and clip the new one on in the same orientation. Always replace both as a pair — running a fresh strut against a worn one will kill the new one early.
Signs You Need New Struts
- Tailgate drops or sags on its own
- Slow, weak rise when you let go
- Particularly bad on cold mornings (gas pressure drops with temperature)
- Visible oil residue on the chrome shaft, or hissing when compressed
- Tailgate needs to be held open or propped with something

Quality is at the heart of everything we do at NitroLift. Every strut is tested in salt spray and 50,000 operations before it leaves our Melbourne facility. Thank you for recognising that — it means a lot to our team! — The NitroLift Team

Works better than the OEM struts
Hi I am very happy with my new struts, made a big difference and even lifts to its maximum height now.
I thought they would lift the tailgate once unlocked but it needs to be lifted by hand a little bit but all good

Fast delivery and fit spot on. They work great.
Very happy with the service from Nitrolift. The pair of struts for my commodore wagon were reasonably priced and the delivery was done promptly. The struts have been fitted with no problems and are working well. Will be very happy if they have a similar service life to the original pair on my car (about 12 years).
Great price. Quick delivery.
