Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Tailgate or hatch that drops instead of staying open

• Rough, uneven, or slow tailgate movement
• Noise or binding during opening and closing
• Wear-related loss of gas pressure in the original support

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle is a 1994-1997 Honda Accord and confirm right-side placement before installation. Compare the compressed length, extended length, stroke, and end fittings to the original support to ensure the correct match. Inspect the mounting points and surrounding hardware for wear before installing the new lift support.

For balanced operation and consistent support, lift supports should be replaced in pairs when the opposite side is also worn. This helps maintain even opening force and reliable tailgate movement.
