Detailed Description

This Tuff Support back glass lift support is made for rear glass liftgate service on the Ford Explorer, Mercury Mountaineer, Ford Explorer Sport, and Mazda Navajo. Use it when the rear glass no longer stays open properly or when the lift action has become weak or inconsistent. Part number 613325 is listed for 1991-2001 Ford Explorer, 2001-2002 Ford Explorer Sport, 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer, and 1991-1994 Mazda Navajo applications.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Fix

• Rear glass that drops instead of staying raised
• Weak or uneven lift support action
• Hard-to-open back glass on liftgate-equipped vehicles
• Rear hatch glass that no longer holds position securely
• Wear-related loss of support on aging Ford Explorer and Mercury Mountaineer models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify vehicle year, make, and model before ordering. Confirm the back glass lift support application against part number 613325 and compare the existing support length and end fittings to the original unit. Replace worn supports in a controlled manner to avoid sudden glass movement during service.
