What It Helps Fix

  • Liftgate that drops too quickly
  • Rear hatch that will not stay open
  • Weak or uneven lift support
  • Hard-to-lift tailgate operation
  • Noise or inconsistent movement from worn gas struts

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the existing strut length, end fittings, and force rating before installation. Match the plastic socket attachment points to the vehicle’s original hardware layout and confirm the part number against the removed unit. For 2016-2018 Honda Pilot applications, the fitment notes specify hardware kit included; for 2003-2007 Honda Pilot applications, no note is listed. Replace gas struts in pairs when both sides show similar wear, and support the liftgate securely during service.
