FCS 84403 Hatch Lift Support

FCS 84403 Gas Charged Lift Support

The FCS 84403 is a gas charged lift support built around a 10-inch compressed length, 16.93-inch extended length, and 6.93-inch stroke length. Those dimensions are critical for matching hatch, hood, or liftgate support geometry where controlled opening and holding force matter.

For buyers searching for FCS 84403 lift support specs or a replacement gas strut with the correct compressed and extended lengths, this part provides a direct dimensional reference for application matching.

Key Features

• Compressed length: 10 inches
• Extended length: 16.93 inches
• Stroke length: 6.93 inches
• FCS part number 84403 for catalog and cross-reference lookup
• Useful for dimensional replacement matching on lift support applications

Product Details

FCS 84403 is specified by length rather than by broad vehicle coverage, so the most important selection step is confirming the installed compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the original support. That makes it a practical choice for shoppers comparing FCS 84403 against OE-style gas struts used on rear hatches, liftgates, or similar access panels. If you are searching for FCS 84403 for Honda Civic or FCS 84403 for Toyota Corolla, verify the physical dimensions before ordering, since fitment is not listed in the supplied data.

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

What It Helps Address

• Weak or failing lift support that no longer holds an access panel open
• Slow or uneven opening of a hatch, hood, or liftgate
• Loss of controlled lift assistance during operation
• Replacement needs where exact support length is the primary match point
• Noise or instability caused by worn gas strut performance

Installation Notes and Tips

Compare the original support’s compressed length, extended length, and stroke length before installation. Confirm mounting style, end fittings, and orientation on the vehicle, then test the panel movement after replacement to ensure smooth travel and proper hold-open function. For shoppers researching FCS 84403 Honda Civic or FCS 84403 Toyota Corolla applications, dimensional verification is essential because no vehicle fitment rows were provided.

Quality Assurance

FCS identifies this part by a specific catalog number and dimensional specification set, which supports accurate replacement selection when matched to the original component. Use the listed measurements as the primary quality check for application confirmation.
