  • Extended length: 16.77 in.
  • Stroke length: 6.69 in.
  • Direct-fit replacement for supported rear lift support applications

  • Fits 1983-1985 Plymouth Turismo, N/A, without spoiler

Product Details

FCS 84618 is a gas strut engineered around its installed length and travel range, making the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length the key measurements for proper fitment. For owners searching for a 1983-1987 Dodge Charger lift support or a 1983-1985 Plymouth Turismo lift support, this part number provides a direct replacement option for vehicles without a spoiler. The FCS brand line is used for replacement support components that match application-specific dimensions, and part number 84618 should be verified against the original unit before installation.

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

What It Helps Address

  • Rear hatch or liftgate that will not stay open
  • Weak or slow support action when opening the panel
  • Loss of holding force from an aging gas strut
  • Uneven or inconsistent lift support operation
  • Replacement needs for spoiler-delete Charger and Turismo applications

Installation Notes

Confirm the original support’s compressed length, extended length, and stroke length before ordering. Verify that the vehicle is a 1983-1987 Dodge Charger or 1983-1985 Plymouth Turismo without a spoiler, and compare the mounting points and installed orientation to the removed part. Part number 84618 should be matched to the vehicle’s existing support dimensions for proper operation.
