Detailed Description of the StrongArm 6843 Lift Support

This trunk lid lift support is a specific fit for Subaru Legacy vehicles, engineered to match factory specifications. The steel outer cylinder with a black finish offers durability and resistance to environmental factors. The 10mm nylon ball socket ends provide a secure and noise-free connection to the trunk lid and body. With a compressed length of 8.1 inches and an extended length of 11.5 inches, the lift support delivers the correct range of motion and force needed to hold the trunk lid open safely. The internal design excludes a rebound spring, focusing on consistent damping performance. Rubber and Teflon materials reduce friction and wear, extending the service life of the part.

  • Trunk lid closing unexpectedly or slamming shut
  • Noise or rattling from worn lift support mounts
  • Visible wear or damage to existing lift supports
  • Reduced lift support force causing trunk lid sagging

Installation Notes and Tips

  • Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface before installation
  • Use appropriate tools to remove the old lift support from the ball sockets
  • Carefully align the new StrongArm 6843 lift support with the mounting points
  • Snap the ball socket ends securely onto the mounting studs
  • Test the trunk lid operation to confirm smooth opening and holding
