Installation Notes

Verify the compressed length, extended length, force rating, and socket-style end fittings before installation. Compare the existing support to part number 4B-593440 to confirm the 10 mm attachment diameter and overall dimensions match the vehicle. Replace supports in pairs only when the vehicle design calls for matched operation, and support the liftgate or hood securely before removing the old unit.
