Product Details

StrongArm 4456 is engineered as a pressurized lift support for automotive hood, hatch, and rear window glass service. The measured compressed length, extended length, and stroke length help match the original support geometry, while the blade-style ends provide the correct attachment profile for the listed Chrysler LeBaron and Dodge 600 fitments. This part number 4456 is a direct replacement option for owners restoring liftgate or hood function on 1984-1986 Chrysler LeBaron and 1984-1986 Dodge 600 vehicles.

Compatible With 1984-1986 Chrysler LeBaron and 1984-1986 Dodge 600 applications, StrongArm 4456 helps restore controlled opening and stable support where worn gas struts no longer hold position. The steel cylinder construction and engineered force rating support smoother operation and longer service life in normal automotive use.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Hood, hatch, or rear glass that drops instead of staying open
• Weak or slow lift support response
• Uneven or inconsistent opening effort
• Noise or binding from a worn gas strut
• Loss of stable support on select Chrysler LeBaron and Dodge 600 vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, end type, and force rating against the original support before installation. Confirm the vehicle application by year and model, since StrongArm 4456 is a specific-fit part for 1984-1986 Chrysler LeBaron and 1984-1986 Dodge 600. For balanced operation and even wear, lift supports are commonly replaced in pairs on the same hood, hatch, or liftgate system.
