Detailed Description

This FCS 86471 hood lift support is specified for Infiniti hood applications that require an 8.11-inch compressed length, 13.07-inch extended length, and 4.96-inch stroke. Those dimensions are important for maintaining proper hood lift and controlled support during opening and closing. Compatible vehicle coverage includes Fits 2014-2015 INFINITI Q60, N/A and Fits 2008-2013 INFINITI G37, N/A. The FCS brand line identifies this as an FCS-branded replacement part for hood service, and part number 86471 helps confirm the correct application during lookup.

What It Helps Address

  • Weak hood support that no longer holds the hood open securely
  • Hood drop or reduced lift assistance during service access
  • Uneven or inconsistent hood movement
  • Difficulty opening the hood smoothly
  • Wear-related loss of gas strut performance on Infiniti hood systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and hood support dimensions before installation. Match the existing support length and stroke to the listed specifications for proper fitment on the Infiniti Q60 or Infiniti G37. Inspect the hood mounting points and surrounding hardware for wear or damage before replacing the support. Confirm part number 86471 against the vehicle application to avoid ordering errors.

Quality Assurance

FCS supplies this hood lift support as an application-specific replacement part for the listed Infiniti vehicles. Use the confirmed fitment and dimensional specifications to verify selection before service.
