StrongArm 4968 Lift Support for Acura Integra

StrongArm 4968 is a specific-fit lift support for the hood or hatch application on 1990-1993 Acura Integra models. Built as a pressurized cylinder, it restores controlled opening and holding force for worn gas struts that no longer stay up or move smoothly.

For Acura Integra owners searching for a 1990-1993 Acura Integra lift support, StrongArm 4968 provides the correct extended and compressed dimensions for direct replacement. The part number 4968 is also a useful reference when cross-checking OE-style lift support listings for this application.

Key Features

  • Specific-fit lift support for 1990-1993 Acura Integra
  • Extended length: 31.85 in; compressed length: 19.64 in
  • Stroke length: 12.21 in for controlled lift travel
  • Black steel outer cylinder with rubber and Teflon materials
  • Ball socket nylon 10mm ends on both sides
  • Maximum force rating: 67.0
  • Part number 4968 for easy catalog matching

Detailed Description

StrongArm lift supports are engineered as pressurized cylinders for automotive hood, hatch, and rear glass applications. This StrongArm 4968 unit is built to match the specified fitment for 1990, 1991, 1992, and 1993 Acura Integra models, helping restore consistent lift and hold performance where the original support has weakened. The steel outer cylinder, nylon ball socket ends, and internal rubber and Teflon materials support smooth operation and durable service.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 for the same application. If you are replacing a worn Acura Integra lift support, part number 4968 is the reference to verify against your vehicle listing.

What It Helps Solve

  • Hood or hatch that drops after being opened
  • Weak lift support that no longer holds position
  • Rough, uneven, or slow opening motion
  • Noise or binding from a worn gas strut
  • Loss of controlled support on Acura Integra body panels

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.
