Detailed Description
StrongArm 4528 is a rear window glass lift support made for the back glass on 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles.

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the mounting style and length before installation on your 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Replace lift supports in pairs to maintain balanced rear glass support and consistent opening force.
