StrongArm 4285 Lift Support for Nissan 240SX

StrongArm 4285 is a specific-fit lift support for the hood, hatch, or rear glass application listed for 1990-1993 Nissan 240SX without spoiler. It uses a pressurized cylinder design to provide controlled opening and holding force for the supported panel.

  • Specific-fit lift support for 1990-1993 Nissan 240SX without spoiler
  • Extended length: 23.15 in; compressed length: 16.93 in
  • Stroke length: 6.22 in for panel travel
  • Maximum force rating: 95.0
  • Steel outer cylinder with black finish
  • Ball socket (nylon) 10 mm ends on both sides
  • Rubber and Teflon materials for operating durability

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.

Quality Assurance

StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured to exceed industry standards for smoother operation and longer service life. Part number 4285 is built to the listed specifications for the confirmed Nissan 240SX application.
