Detailed Description
StrongArm 6174 is engineered as a direct replacement lift support for the Suzuki XL-7, with fitment listed for 2007, 2008, and 2009 models. The cylinder measures 22.0 mm outside diameter and 10.0 mm inner shaft diameter, with a 9.0-inch stroke that helps maintain consistent lift and controlled closing action. This part number, 6174, is also referenced under AMS Automotive 6174 and Monroe Shocks & Struts 901774 for the same application.
Built with a steel outer cylinder, nylon ball socket ends, and internal rubber/Teflon materials, StrongArm 6174 is intended to deliver smooth operation and long service life in daily use. If your Suzuki XL-7 hood, hatch, or rear glass no longer stays open securely, this lift support restores proper support and motion.
What It Helps Fix
- Hood, hatch, or rear glass that drops unexpectedly
- Weak or slow-opening lift support operation
- Uneven or inconsistent support during opening
- Excess effort needed to raise the supported panel
- Worn gas strut performance on a Suzuki XL-7
