Fitment and Product Details

Compatible with 2008-2013 Cadillac CTS and 2014 Cadillac CTS, rear. The FCS brand line identifies this as a trunk lid lift support intended for the rear compartment lid, with dimensions that help match lift height and opening travel on the Cadillac CTS platform. If you are searching for a Cadillac CTS trunk lift support, rear hatch support, or FCS 86250 replacement, this part number is the key reference for application matching.

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

What It Helps Address

  • Trunk lid that drops instead of staying open
  • Weak or slow trunk opening action
  • Loss of support at the rear compartment lid
  • Uneven or inconsistent lift assist on the CTS trunk lid
  • Need for a direct-fit trunk lid support replacement

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the original support before installation. Confirm rear position fitment on the Cadillac CTS and compare the mounting points and overall length to the removed unit. Replace only after the trunk lid is safely supported during service.

Quality Assurance

FCS 86250 is listed with defined dimensional specifications for application matching on the Cadillac CTS platform. Use the part number and fitment details to confirm the correct rear trunk lid lift support before installation.
