The strut features a 6-inch stroke length, allowing smooth extension and compression between its compressed length of 11.75 inches and extended length of 17.75 inches. The inner shaft diameter measures 8.0 mm, providing strength and stability during operation. Both ends are equipped with nylon ball sockets—one 10mm and the other a 16-degree angled 16mm—to ensure secure and precise mounting. The inclusion of rubber and Teflon materials enhances sealing and reduces friction, contributing to consistent performance. This gas strut is designed without an internal rebound spring, focusing on controlled damping suitable for specific Kia Borrego applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications and Problem Solving\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports liftgate or hood operation on Kia Borrego vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplaces worn or failing gas struts causing sagging or difficulty in opening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRestores smooth and controlled motion to vehicle components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrevents sudden closures or unsafe operation of lift supports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintains proper positioning and stability of supported parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure compatibility with Kia Borrego model year before installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse appropriate tools to remove old gas strut and avoid damage to mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstall ball socket ends securely to prevent detachment during use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck for proper alignment and smooth operation after installation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDo not attempt to disassemble the gas strut as it is a sealed unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eQuality Assurance and Warranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe StrongArm gas strut part number 6476 is manufactured to meet OEM specifications for the Kia Borrego.
