Detailed Description

The FCS 84340 is a hood lift support built to match the length and stroke requirements of the 1995-1997 Lincoln Continental. With a compressed length of 15.47 inches, an extended length of 20.67 inches, and a 5.2-inch stroke, it is sized to support the hood through its travel range and maintain consistent lift behavior. If your Lincoln Continental hood no longer stays up or drops too quickly, this replacement support addresses that worn-out gas strut condition with a direct body replacement part.

FCS 84340 is listed for 1995, 1996, and 1997 Lincoln Continental models. Use the part number 84340 when verifying the correct hood lift support for your vehicle, especially when matching length and stroke specifications during replacement.

What It Helps Fix

  • Hood that will not stay open
  • Slow or uneven hood lift action
  • Loss of support from a worn gas strut
  • Hood dropping during service access
  • Incorrect support length after prior replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the removed support before installation. Verify fitment on the 1995-1997 Lincoln Continental and compare the mounting points and hood travel to the original unit. For best results, replace a support that shows reduced holding force or visible wear as soon as the hood no longer remains securely open.

Quality Assurance

FCS manufactures replacement body components for vehicle-specific applications, and this hood lift support is cataloged for the Lincoln Continental platform. Part number 84340 is specified for 1995-1997 Lincoln Continental fitment.
