Product Details

The FCS 80027 liftgate lift support is specified for the rear liftgate on 2009-2010 INFINITI FX35 and 2009-2010 INFINITI FX50 models. The listed compressed length, extended length, and stroke length provide the dimensional reference needed when replacing a worn gas support on the liftgate. FCS brand line identification is useful when matching the correct rear hatch support for these Infiniti crossover applications, and part number 80027 should be verified against the vehicle’s original support before ordering.

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

Common Issues This Part Can Address

• Liftgate that drops instead of staying open

Installation Notes

Confirm the vehicle year, model, and liftgate support dimensions before installation. Compare the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length to the original unit to ensure proper match. Inspect the mounting points and surrounding hardware for wear or damage before replacing the support. After installation, cycle the liftgate several times to verify smooth operation and secure engagement.
