FCS 86133 Gas Charged Lift Support

FCS 86133 is a gas charged lift support built around a 10.83-inch compressed length, 18.43-inch extended length, and 7.6-inch stroke. Those dimensions are critical for maintaining proper opening height and controlled movement on the supported panel. It is a direct-fit option for select Volvo XC90 and Volvo C70 applications.

Key Features

• Compressed length: 10.83 inches
• Extended length: 18.43 inches
• Stroke length: 7.6 inches
• FCS 86133 fitment for select Volvo XC90 and Volvo C70 models
• OE-style replacement format for consistent lift and support

Detailed Description

FCS 86133 is engineered to match the required travel range for the application, using the listed compressed length, extended length, and stroke length to support smooth opening and closing action. For Volvo XC90 models from 2003-2014 and Volvo C70 models from 2007-2008, the correct length profile is essential for maintaining proper panel positioning and controlled operation. If you are searching for an FCS 86133 lift support for Volvo XC90 or an FCS 86133 gas strut for Volvo C70, this part number identifies the specified replacement.

FCS is the brand line for this part, and the product is presented as a direct replacement solution within that line. 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 the panel open
• Slow, uneven, or uncontrolled opening movement
• Loss of proper support due to worn internal gas pressure
• Incorrect panel height caused by an out-of-spec replacement
• Noise or instability from a support that no longer operates smoothly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the original support before installation. Confirm vehicle application by year and model: Fits 2003-2014 Volvo XC90, N/A; Fits 2007-2008 Volvo C70, N/A. Compare the mounting points and overall travel to the removed unit to ensure the replacement matches the original geometry.

Quality Assurance

FCS 86133 is specified with exact dimensional data to support accurate replacement selection. Use the listed measurements and fitment details to confirm the correct part for your Volvo XC90 or Volvo C70 application.
