Product Information
Full details
The Febi Boot Gas Strut (39704) is a high-quality replacement component designed for vehicle owners needing to restore the smooth, controlled opening and closing functionality of their boot or cargo area. It is ideal for DIY mechanics or those looking to replace worn-out struts to ensure the tailgate stays open securely without manual intervention. A primary caveat is that this part is vehicle-specific, requiring precise confirmation of compatibility with your car's make and model before purchase, as modifications to the strut are strictly prohibited for safety reasons.

FAQs
Should I replace both gas struts at the same time?
Yes, it is strongly recommended to replace both struts simultaneously to ensure even pressure and prevent premature failure of the new part.
Can I refill or repair a leaking gas strut?
No, these are sealed, maintenance-free units. If a strut is leaking fluid or gas, it must be replaced.
What does 660 N mean?
This is the Newtons of force the strut exerts. It is the measurement of how much 'lift' power the strut provides.
How do I check compatibility?
Verify the MPN 39704 against your vehicle's make, model, and year using a professional automotive parts catalog.
Is it safe to install this myself?
If you are familiar with basic automotive repair and have the necessary tools to secure the tailgate, it is a standard task, but caution must be taken to prevent the tailgate from dropping.
Troubleshooting
Tailgate does not stay open after installation
Ensure the strut is fully clicked into the mounting points and that you have replaced both struts rather than just one.
Difficulty snapping the strut onto the mounting ball
Apply a very small amount of silicone lubricant to the ball joint and ensure the locking clip on the strut end is correctly positioned.

Installation Tips:
- Always support the tailgate with a prop or a second person before removing old struts to prevent it from falling.

- Do not attempt to compress or modify the strut manually outside of its intended mounting points.
- If replacing, it is highly recommended to replace both struts on the tailgate simultaneously to maintain balanced pressure.
