Lift Support for Chevrolet Lumina APV and Silhouette

StrongArm 4849 is a specific-fit lift support for select Chevrolet and Oldsmobile applications. It is engineered as a pressurized cylinder for hood, hatch, or rear glass support, with smooth operation and consistent holding force.

  • Specific-fit lift support for confirmed vehicle applications
  • Extended length: 28.9 in.; compressed length: 19.76 in.
  • Stroke length: 9.14 in. with 152.0 maximum force
  • Black steel outer cylinder for durable construction
  • 10 mm nylon ball socket ends on both sides
  • Rubber and Teflon materials used in the support assembly

Product Details

StrongArm 4849 is built for direct replacement use on 1992 Chevrolet Lumina APV, 1994-1996 Chevrolet Lumina APV, and 1995-1996 Oldsmobile Silhouette. This lift support uses a 22.0 mm cylinder outside diameter, a 10.0 mm inner shaft diameter, and no internal rebound spring. For shoppers searching for a 1994 Chevrolet Lumina APV lift support, 1995 Oldsmobile Silhouette hatch support, or 1996 Chevrolet Lumina APV rear glass support, this part number 4849 matches the listed applications. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 for the same application.

Common Replacement Reasons

  • Hood, hatch, or liftgate drops instead of staying open
  • Weak or slow lift support movement
  • Uneven support force during opening or closing
  • Noise or binding from worn gas struts
  • Loss of holding pressure in the original support

Installation Notes

Verify the end fittings and compressed/extended lengths before installation. Match the 10 mm ball socket connection points to the vehicle mounting studs and confirm the support orientation before removal of the old unit. Replace the support in pairs when the vehicle uses matched left and right lift supports to maintain even opening and closing effort.

Quality Assurance

StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards for smoother operation and longer service life. Part number 4849 is built to the listed specifications for the confirmed Chevrolet Lumina APV and Oldsmobile Silhouette applications.
