Installation Notes and Tips
Confirm the vehicle year and application before ordering. This StrongArm 4968 lift support uses 10mm nylon ball socket ends, so the mounting points must match the existing hardware on the vehicle. Compare the compressed length, extended length, and stroke length to the original support to verify proper replacement for your 1990-1993 Acura Integra.
Quality Assurance
StrongArm states that each lift support is custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards to deliver smoother operation and longer-lasting performance. For safe and reliable support, lift supports should be replaced in pairs when servicing the vehicle.
