Product Details

The FCS brand line focuses on direct-fit replacement support components for body applications, and part number 86755 is a hood lift support for select Lexus RX350 and Lexus RX450h vehicles. The measured compressed length, extended length, and stroke length are key dimensions for matching hood support travel and installed fitment. This part number, FCS 86755, is listed for 2010-2015 Lexus RX350 and 2010-2015 Lexus RX450h applications excluding Japan built vehicles.

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

Common Problems It Can Address

• Hood that drops instead of staying open
• Weak or inconsistent hood support during service
• Slow hood lift after release
• Loss of proper hood hold-open function
• Need for a direct replacement hood strut on Lexus RX350 or Lexus RX450h

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment by year, model, and build origin before installation. Confirm the existing support matches the listed compressed length of 11.5, extended length of 20.16, and stroke length of 8.66. For best results, replace a worn hood lift support when the hood no longer stays open securely or requires extra effort to raise.

Quality Assurance

FCS 86755 is a replacement hood lift support built for the listed Lexus RX applications. Use the fitment notes to confirm exclusion of Japan built vehicles before ordering.
