Product Details

FCS 84103 is a hood lift support for the front hood position on Buick LeSabre vehicles equipped with a steel hood. The compressed length of 6.42 inches, extended length of 9.76 inches, and 3.35-inch stroke length define the operating range of the support and help ensure the hood opens and closes within the intended travel. For buyers searching for a Buick LeSabre hood lift support, FCS 84103, or a front hood strut for 1980-1990 Buick LeSabre with steel hood, this part matches the listed fitment exactly.

FCS is the brand line identified for this application, and FCS 84103 is cataloged specifically for the front hood position. This makes it a focused replacement choice when the original hood support no longer holds the hood securely or loses lifting force over time.

Confirm the front mounting points and compare the existing support’s compressed and extended lengths to FCS 84103 for application matching. Replace the support when hood movement becomes uneven or the hood no longer remains in the open position.
