Product Details
FCS 86180 is a trunk lid lift support for the Mitsubishi Galant, engineered around the listed length specifications so the trunk lid opens and stays supported as intended. The FCS brand line identifies this as a dedicated body hardware replacement for trunk lid and compartment service, and the dimensional data helps confirm the correct replacement for the vehicle’s lift support setup. This part number, 86180, is the reference to use when matching the correct support for 2008-2012 Mitsubishi Galant models.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- Trunk lid that will not stay open
- Weak or worn lift support performance
- Slow or uneven trunk opening action
- Loss of support caused by aging gas struts
- Difficulty accessing the trunk compartment
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle year and build range before ordering, especially for the 2008 Mitsubishi Galant from 12/07-05. Confirm the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the existing support to ensure proper replacement. Match the application to the trunk lid position listed for the vehicle and inspect the mounting points for wear before installation.
