Common Replacement Reasons

• Weak or inconsistent hood support force
• Slow hood lift action during opening
• Need for a direct replacement on a worn gas strut

Installation Notes

Verify the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the original support before installation. Confirm the vehicle application and mounting points on the hood and body, then replace the support with the hood fully secured to prevent sudden movement during service. Part number 84468 should be matched to the listed fitment before installation.
