Detailed Description
StrongArm 4826 is engineered for right-side fitment on 1989-1994 Geo Metro, 1990-1991 Pontiac Firefly, 1994 Pontiac Firefly, and 1989-1994 Suzuki Swift. This lift support uses a pressurized gas-cylinder design to provide controlled lift and stable support for the hood, hatch, or rear glass in the listed applications. The steel outer cylinder, 10 mm ball socket end, and off-set blade with bracket end support secure mounting and repeatable operation. This part cross-references Bosch 4826 for the same application.

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the end fittings, compressed length, extended length, and right-side position before installation. Match the vehicle application exactly, since this is a specific-fit part. For safe and reliable support, replace lift supports in pairs when the opposite side is also worn.
Quality Assurance
StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards to deliver smoother operation and longer service life in automotive applications.
