Product Details
Built as a trunk lid lift support, StrongArm 6540 is custom engineered for the listed Ford Fiesta fitments: 2003 Ford Fiesta and 2005-2008 Ford Fiesta. The compressed length is 7.75 inches, extended length is 11.0 inches, and stroke length is 3.25 inches. The cylinder measures 18.0 mm outside diameter with an 8.0 mm inner shaft diameter, and both ends use 10 mm ball socket connections for a specific application fit. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 819-8154, F6540) for the same application.
Common Replacement Reasons
- Trunk lid drops too quickly when opened
- Rear lid will not stay raised
- Weak or inconsistent lift support pressure
- Binding, slow movement, or uneven trunk lid operation
- Visible wear on the existing lift support cylinder
Installation Notes
Verify the vehicle application before installation and match the ball socket end style and length specifications to the original support. Lift supports should be replaced in pairs to maintain balanced operation and reliable rear lid support. Confirm the trunk lid opens and closes smoothly after installation on 2003 Ford Fiesta and 2005-2008 Ford Fiesta models.
Quality Assurance
StrongArm lift supports are custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards to deliver smoother operation and longer service life. The pressurized cylinder design and durable steel outer cylinder support consistent performance in trunk lid applications.
