Detailed Description

StrongArm 4808 is engineered as a direct-fit lift support for the Acura Integra, 1986-1989. The pressurized cylinder design helps maintain steady support for the hood, hatch, or rear window glass, while the steel outer cylinder and Teflon-based internal materials support smooth operation. With a 33.12-inch extended length, 20.81-inch compressed length, and 12.31-inch stroke, this part is sized for the listed application and uses a 10mm nylon ball socket on one end and an off-set blade on the other. This part cross-references AMS Automotive 4808 for the same application.

StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured to exceed industry standards for consistent operation and longer service life. Part number 4808 is a practical replacement choice when the original support no longer holds position or opens with the correct resistance.

Common Replacement Reasons

  • Hood, hatch, or rear glass drops after being opened
  • Weak or inconsistent lift support pressure
  • Slow, uneven, or noisy opening action
  • Loss of holding force in cold or warm conditions
  • Visible wear at the end fittings or cylinder body

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle year and application before installation. Match the end fittings and overall length to the original support on the 1986-1989 Acura Integra. Lift supports should be replaced in pairs to maintain balanced support and consistent operation across the opening.

Quality Assurance

StrongArm manufactures this lift support beyond industry standards for smoother operation and longer-lasting performance. The part number 4808 is built for the specified Acura Integra fitment and is engineered for dependable support in automotive lift applications.
