Fitment Details
Compatible With 2016-2017 Toyota RAV4 and 2018 Toyota RAV4, to 04/2018. This part number, 4B-853030, is also referenced in OE-style interchange listings for the same application, including AP Exhaust 7306.
What This Gas Strut Helps Address
- Weak or failing lift support on a rear hatch, hood, or similar panel
- Slow or uneven opening and closing motion
- Loss of holding force when the panel is raised
- Noise or instability caused by worn gas spring internals
- Dimensional mismatch when replacing an OE-style strut
Installation Notes
Verify the compressed length, extended length, force rating, and socket style before installation. Compare the existing strut to 4B-853030 and confirm the vehicle build date for 2018 Toyota RAV4 models, since fitment is listed only through 04/2018. Use care when removing and installing gas struts because the supported panel can move unexpectedly.
