Detailed Description

StrongArm 6404 is a trunk lid lift support built for the rear hatch on the 2003-2007 Cadillac CTS, second design.

The specific-fit design helps ensure proper geometry for the application, and the ball socket end configuration matches the vehicle mounting points. If you are replacing a worn Cadillac CTS hatch support, StrongArm 6404 provides the correct fitment-focused solution for this body application.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

  • Slow or weak rear lift action

  • Rear hatch movement that feels abrupt or uncontrolled

Installation Notes and Tips
