H3 Locking Rear door strut?

[Jaxs_Detroit]

I'm tired of my rear door slamming closed (with a 35 on the door) when im parked on any kind of angle. Anybody found a replacement strut that locks the door open. This is the only thing im jealous that my buddies FJ has and wanna see if something can work for my H3 Alpha?
Thanks everyone for any input.

Are you looking for something that works automatically, as opposed to something you manually engage? And have you considered a stronger strut?

Might be possible to fabricate something similar to a storm door strut lock.

Extended length is 25 inches, compressed length is 14.17 inches. With some searching through online catalogs you should be able to find out what the "force pounds" spec is and pick something stronger. I've done it in the past and had great luck with it.

I’m with you on this one. Getting hit with a heavy door + a 32”-37” tire & rim is no fun.

I heavily caution anyone who tries to “help” me get anything out of my truck.
