Common Problems This Part Addresses
- Rear hatch, spoiler, or liftgate that no longer stays open
- Weak or slow opening action from a worn gas strut
- Dropping or uneven support when the panel is raised
- Loss of holding force in cold weather or after extended use
- Noise or binding caused by an aging lift support
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the existing strut length, end fittings, and mounting style before installation. Match the plastic socket with ball stud connection to the vehicle’s original attachment points on the Mitsubishi Eclipse. Replace only with the correct application listed for your year and equipment package, and confirm the spoiler and/or rear wiper configuration before ordering. Support the panel securely during removal and installation to prevent sudden movement.
