Application Details
This StrongArm 4285 lift support is engineered for the 1990-1993 Nissan 240SX, without spoiler, and is built to match the listed dimensions and end fittings for direct replacement use. The pressurized cylinder construction helps maintain steady support and smoother panel movement, while the specific-fit design supports accurate alignment on the Nissan 240SX hood or hatch application. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Problems It Can Solve
- Weak hood or hatch support that no longer holds the panel open
- Slow, uneven, or difficult lifting action
- Panel drop after opening
- Loss of support force from a worn gas strut
- Noise or rough movement from aging lift support hardware
Installation Notes
Verify the vehicle is a 1990-1993 Nissan 240SX without spoiler before ordering. Match the compressed length, extended length, stroke length, and 10 mm ball socket ends to the original support. Replace lift supports in pairs when servicing the vehicle so the hood, hatch, or liftgate opens and stays supported evenly.
