StrongArm 4474 Deck Lid Lift Support

StrongArm 4474 Lift Support for Toyota Celica

StrongArm 4474 is a specific-fit lift support for the 1984-1985 Toyota Celica. It uses a pressurized cylinder design to provide controlled hood, hatch, or rear glass support where the original unit has weakened or failed.

• Specific fit for 1984-1985 Toyota Celica
• Compressed length: 8.67 in.
• Extended length: 10.47 in.
• Stroke length: 1.8 in.
• Maximum force: 145.0
• Black steel outer cylinder with nylon 10mm ball socket ends
• Rubber and Teflon materials for smoother operation

Built for Controlled Lift Support

StrongArm 4474 is engineered as a direct replacement lift support for Toyota Celica hood, hatch, or rear window glass applications that use this specific mounting and length profile. The 19.0 mm cylinder outside diameter and 8.0 mm inner shaft diameter support consistent movement, while the pressurized construction helps maintain steady opening and holding action. This part number 4474 also cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Help Solve

• Hood, hatch, or rear glass that drops instead of staying open
• Weak or inconsistent lift support pressure
• Slow, uneven opening motion
• Noise or binding from worn support hardware
• Loss of controlled support on a 1984-1985 Toyota Celica

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, and 10mm ball socket ends match the original support before installation. For best results, replace lift supports in pairs so the opening force remains balanced across the hood, hatch, or liftgate. Confirm the mounting points are clean and aligned before snapping the sockets into place.

Quality Assurance

StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards to deliver smoother operation and longer service life. Part number 4474 is built to meet the fitment and force requirements for the specified Toyota Celica application.
