Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, always verify that the part number 47066 matches your specific vehicle's make, model, and year. To install, ensure the tailgate is supported by a secondary prop or a helper to prevent it from slamming down. Use a small flat-head screwdriver to gently release the retaining clips on the old strut ends. Snap the new febi bilstein strut into place, ensuring the clips are fully seated. Avoid applying lubricants or oils to the piston rod, as these can attract dust and compromise the internal seals, leading to premature failure.
