Detailed Description

This FCS liftgate lift support is specified for rear liftgate use on the Kia Soul and Kia Soul EV across the listed model years. The length and stroke measurements are the key dimensions for matching hatch opening and closing travel, helping ensure the support aligns with the vehicle’s liftgate geometry. FCS 80025 is a practical replacement choice when the original lift support no longer holds the hatch in position or no longer moves smoothly through its full range.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Is Used For

• Liftgate drops after opening on a Kia Soul
• Rear hatch no longer stays raised on a Kia Soul EV
• Uneven or weak liftgate movement during opening and closing
• Loss of proper hatch support on 2014-2019 Kia Soul models
• Rear liftgate support replacement for 2015-2019 Kia Soul EV models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and liftgate configuration before ordering. This application is listed without brackets, so confirm the existing mounting style matches the vehicle before installation. Compare the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length to the original support to confirm fitment for the rear liftgate.

Quality Assurance

FCS 80025 is cataloged for the listed Kia Soul and Kia Soul EV applications and should be matched to the vehicle by year and model before installation. Use the part number 80025 and the fitment details above to confirm the correct rear liftgate support for your vehicle.
