FAQs

Is it recommended to replace only one strut?

It is highly recommended to replace both struts at the same time to ensure even force distribution and prevent strain on the tailgate hinges.

What is the force rating of this strut?

This model has an eject force of 420 N.

Does this part fit both sides of the vehicle?

Yes, this specific part number is designed to be compatible with either side of the vehicle.

What are the dimensions of this component?

The strut has a length of 584 mm, a stroke of 241 mm, an 18 mm housing diameter, and an 8 mm piston conrod diameter.

Can I install this myself?

While it is a straightforward mechanical task, it is recommended for individuals with mechanical competence due to the high-pressure nature of gas springs.

How do I know if my struts are failing?

Common signs include the tailgate feeling heavier than usual, failing to open fully, or closing on its own while being loaded.

Troubleshooting

Tailgate does not stay open

The gas strut has lost pressure; ensure both struts are replaced as a pair to restore full lifting capacity.

Difficulty snapping the strut onto the ball stud

Verify the mounting points are free of corrosion and that the strut is oriented correctly as per the vehicle's original installation.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-quality, durable materials
  • Matches original equipment performance
  • Suitable for both left and right side installation
  • Helps prevent tailgate sagging or abrupt closing

Cons

  • Requires professional installation knowledge
  • Must verify vehicle compatibility carefully
  • Individual unit; may require two for a complete replacement

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before installation, always verify the part number against your vehicle's service manual or manufacturer data. Because tailgate struts are under high pressure, ensure the tailgate is supported by a second person or a secure prop during the removal of the old unit. Clean the mounting ball studs before snapping the new strut into place to ensure a secure connection. Periodically wipe the exposed piston rod with a clean, dry cloth to remove dirt or debris that could damage the internal seals and lead to premature failure.
