    Hello, Anyone know where to find a replacement strut for the tailgate damper? Sorry, not sure if I’m posting in the right place, new member. Looking for the replacement tailgate strut damper for a 2023 Tundra Platinum…. Can’t find on Amazon or local auto stores. Any recommendations appreciated….

    Not covered under warranty? Are they treating it like a non covered “usage” item?

    Might want to look under the bed on the left corner. Some have found the damper popped off on one end. I can hear mine hiss on the left side when the gate comes down.
