Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Do these struts require special tools for installation? A: Most installations require only a flat head screwdriver to release the retaining clips on the ball joints.

Q: Should both lift supports be replaced at the same time? A: Replacing both units simultaneously ensures balanced pressure and prevents the newer strut from failing prematurely due to overwork.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
