Re: How do you keep the back gate open??
Thanks for the thoughts guys. I tried all of these and was looking for something a little better. I have an expandable tent pole with a rubber end on it that I use to prop the gate open with. I tried the bungees and the gate is too heavy, I think rope might be better. I was hoping someone had designed something that could be stuck in the frame between the door and the jamb to keep it open. Oh well, I'll keep trying until I find something that works!!
Thanks again.......  |

Yeah, I guess a block of wood would do.
Nope, no driving with the gate open RYD...  |

Re: How do you keep the back gate open??
take a look at a Land Rover Discovery Rear door. They designed it so it stays open. I have been thinking about getting a used whathcamacallit from a Disco and retrofitting it to my H3 becuase I almost got chopped in half by my rear door the first time I went camping.
Dealer said deal with it.

Re: How do you keep the back gate open??
I haven't looked under the door to check out the clearance issues, but maybe mount a second strut under there.. Or maybe just find one that's rated for a higher "push"... Are they rated..???
