StrongArm 6278 Lift Support for Volvo V70 and XC70

StrongArm 6278 is a specific-fit lift support for the hood, hatch, or rear glass application listed for select Volvo models. It uses a pressurized cylinder design with steel ball socket ends to deliver controlled opening and holding force for everyday service.

  • Specific-fit lift support for confirmed Volvo applications
  • Extended length: 12.53 in; compressed length: 3.25 in
  • Stroke length: 9.28 in for the listed application
  • Maximum force rating: 260.0
  • Steel outer cylinder with black finish
  • Ball socket ends, 13 mm, on both sides
  • Rubber and Teflon materials used in the assembly

Fitment Details

  • Fits 2001-2007 Volvo V70, N/A
  • Fits 2003-2007 Volvo XC70, N/A

StrongArm 6278 is engineered as a direct replacement lift support for the Volvo V70 and Volvo XC70 applications shown above. The pressurized cylinder construction helps maintain steady support during opening and closing, while the steel cylinder body and 13 mm ball socket ends match the specified mounting style for a precise service replacement. This part number 6278 is also referenced in aftermarket interchange listings for the same application, including Monroe Shocks & Struts 819-6385 and 900051.

What It Helps Fix

  • Hood, hatch, or rear glass that will not stay open
  • Slow or weak lift support operation
  • Drooping panels that fall after opening
  • Uneven or inconsistent opening effort
  • Noise or binding from a worn gas strut

Installation Notes

Verify the mounting style, extended length, compressed length, and force rating before installation. For proper operation and balanced support, replace lift supports in pairs when servicing the vehicle. Confirm the ball socket connection and application match the listed Volvo V70 or Volvo XC70 fitment before removal of the original part.

Quality Assurance

StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured to exceed industry standards for smoother operation and longer service life. Part number 6278 is built for the specific fitment shown and is intended to restore reliable support performance on the listed Volvo applications.
