    Is it stronger/ more powerful than stock? I have the rubber mat attached to mine and it makes it heavier so lifting it is more difficult.

    Does anyone know a stronger lift system for a 2012 CM?

    Does this make it easier to control lowering it or easier to raise?

    Seems like it would be one or the other.

    Try removing your left rear tail light. It should be there.
