Product Details and Specifications

The StrongArm 4130 trunk lid lift support is a specific fit part designed exclusively for Ford Focus vehicles. Its steel outer cylinder with a black finish offers corrosion resistance and durability.

• Replaces worn or weak lift supports causing trunk lid sagging
• Eliminates trunk lid slamming or sudden closing
• Prevents difficulty in holding the trunk lid open
• Restores proper trunk lid alignment and ease of use

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation of the StrongArm 4130 trunk lid lift support requires removal of the old lift support by detaching the ball socket ends. The nylon ball sockets on both ends allow for straightforward snap-on installation without special tools. Ensure the lift support is oriented correctly with the cylinder mounted on the vehicle body and the shaft connected to the trunk lid. Verify the part number 4130 matches your Ford Focus model year and specifications before installation. Lubrication of ball sockets is generally not necessary due to the Teflon components.
