This gas spring is designed to provide controlled assistance for opening and closing heavy components like hoods, tailgates, or doors, belonging to the vehicle's body hardware system. Manufactured to meet OEM performance specifications, it offers consistent force and smooth operation, unlike a worn or leaking gas spring that may sag or fail to hold the component open. Operators may experience difficulty lifting or keeping a heavy panel open, or notice the panel closing unexpectedly when this part is failing.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Clean mating surfaces before fitting cab seals to prevent air and water ingress. Use correct adhesive for glass bonding — structural automotive adhesive, not silicone. Check wiring harness routing when replacing doors or panels.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The most common symptom of a failing gas spring is a noticeable reduction in lifting force, making it difficult to open a heavy panel. If left unaddressed, the spring may completely lose its pressure, failing to hold the panel open at all, which poses a risk of injury or damage when working with the component. The worst outcome is the panel falling unexpectedly, potentially causing injury or damage to the component or vehicle.
Support the component securely before removing the old gas spring to prevent it from falling unexpectedly. Ensure the mounting points are clean and free of debris for a secure installation.
Inspect the mounting brackets and the panel itself for any signs of stress or damage when replacing the gas spring.
