Detailed Description

This part number is built to match the specified mounting style and travel dimensions, helping restore smooth liftgate, hood, or rear glass operation where the original support has weakened.

Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the mounting style, side, and dimensions before installation. StrongArm 4827 is a left-side specific fit, so confirm the vehicle application against the existing support and mounting points. For consistent operation and balanced support, replace lift supports in pairs when the opposite side is also equipped with a matching unit.
