StrongArm 6116 Lift Support for Cadillac SRX

StrongArm 6116 is a specific-fit lift support for the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX. It is built as a pressurized cylinder for hood, hatch, or rear glass support, with dimensions and end fittings matched to the application for consistent operation.

Key Features

  • Specific-fit lift support for the Cadillac SRX
  • Extended length: 19.77 in.; compressed length: 12.97 in.
  • Stroke length: 6.8 in. with 138.0 maximum force
  • Steel outer cylinder with black finish
  • Nylon ball socket ends, 16-degree on both ends
  • Rubber and Teflon materials for smoother movement and wear resistance
  • StrongArm 6116 cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 and 182286 for the same application

Product Details

StrongArm 6116 is engineered for the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX and uses a specific-fit design rather than a universal layout. The cylinder measures 22.0 mm outside diameter with a 10.0 mm inner shaft diameter, and the 6.8-inch stroke supports controlled opening and closing action. The steel outer cylinder and nylon ball socket ends are selected for stable mounting and repeatable motion. This part number, 6116, is also listed under several interchange references, making it easier to verify the correct replacement for the Cadillac SRX.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

  • Hood, hatch, or rear glass that drops instead of staying open
  • Weak or inconsistent lift support pressure
  • Slow or uneven opening action
  • Excessive effort needed to raise the supported panel
  • Noise or binding from a worn gas strut

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle application before installation and confirm the end fittings match the existing mounting points. For proper balance and safe operation, replace lift supports in pairs when servicing the same opening. After installation, cycle the hood, hatch, or liftgate several times to confirm smooth movement and secure engagement.

Quality Assurance

StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards to deliver smoother operation and longer service life. Part number 6116 is built for direct replacement use on the 2004-2009 Cadillac SRX, with fitment confirmed for this application.
