Detailed Description

FCS 86559 is a trunk lid lift support for the Ford Taurus, covering 2010-2016 spoiler-equipped trunk lid applications and 2017-2019 models with spoiler. The part number 86559 is listed for direct fitment in these configurations, making it a focused replacement for vehicles that need consistent trunk lid lift and controlled closing action. The compact compressed length and 12.56-inch extended length help match the original support geometry, while the 3.78-inch stroke provides the travel needed for opening and holding the trunk lid.

FCS is the brand line identified for this part, and this support is cataloged specifically for trunk lid and compartment service rather than general-purpose use. For buyers searching for a Ford Taurus trunk lift support, Ford Taurus trunk lid strut, or FCS 86559 replacement, this listing aligns with the documented fitment and dimensions.

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

What It Helps Fix

• Trunk lid that drops too quickly when opened
• Weak lift support that no longer holds the trunk lid up
• Uneven or inconsistent trunk opening effort
• Difficulty accessing the cargo area on Ford Taurus models
• Wear-related loss of support in spoiler-equipped trunk lid setups

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, body configuration, and spoiler-equipped trunk lid setup before ordering. Confirm the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length against the original support to ensure proper match. Replace the support only after confirming the mounting points and orientation on the vehicle.

Quality Assurance

FCS 86559 is cataloged as a direct-fit trunk lid lift support for the listed Ford Taurus applications, with dimensions provided for fit verification and replacement matching.
