  • Uneven or inconsistent trunk opening effort
  • Noise or binding from a worn lift support

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle fitment before installation: Fits 2010-2019 Ford Taurus, without spoiler. Confirm the existing support uses 10mm ball socket ends and matches the listed compressed and extended lengths. Replace in pairs when the opposite side also shows wear so the trunk lid opens and closes with balanced support. Check the mounting points for wear or damage before attaching the new support.
