Bring the lift back to your Peugeot 308 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.

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

Great price, fast shipping, efficiently packed
(I thought a mistake had been made and only strut had been shipped, but no, there were two in the postage tube!)
We believe Australian-made quality shouldn't cost a fortune, and we're glad that came through for you! Thank you for supporting NitroLift — we appreciate your business. — The NitroLift Team
Gas struts arrived in good time. I approached my mechanic and made an appointment to fit them. However, after thinking about it, I searched on YouTube for guidance on how to fit them myself. It took me about 15 minutes. I phoned and cancelled my mechanic.
It would have been good to have the instructions included... don't you think?

excellent service, perfect fit and 5 minutes to install.
Perfect fit, easy to install. No more using a plank to hold up the tailgate.
Arrived promptly. Sizes were exact and the struts were easy to fit. Very happy with my purchase.
