Detailed Description

StrongArm 7021 is a trunk lid lift support built for Mazda MX-5 Miata models from 2016-2023, with fitment for 2016-2020 Mazda MX-5 Miata except Power Retractable Hardtop and 2021-2023 Mazda MX-5 Miata. This gas-charged support helps maintain consistent trunk lid movement by providing the correct length, stroke, and force for the application. The specific-fit design and 10 mm nylon ball socket ends support a direct replacement approach for the rear compartment lid.

This part cross-references AMS Automotive 7021 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

  • Trunk lid that drops too quickly
  • Weak or inconsistent lift support pressure
  • Difficulty keeping the rear compartment lid open
  • Uneven or worn trunk lid support operation
  • Noise or binding caused by aging lift struts

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year and body style before ordering, especially on 2016-2020 Mazda MX-5 Miata models with the Power Retractable Hardtop exclusion. Inspect the mounting points and ball studs for wear before installing the new support. For proper operation and balanced support, replace lift supports in pairs when servicing the trunk lid.

Quality Assurance
