This is a Volvo Gas Spring Component, designed to provide controlled lifting and lowering assistance for heavy components like doors, hoods, or hatches on Volvo trucks. It is built to Volvo's high standards, ensuring consistent force and reliable operation over its service life, unlike a weakened or leaking gas spring. Observable signs of failure include a gas spring that will not hold its position, slow or jerky movement, or a complete inability to support the weight it's intended for.
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.
A gas spring that fails to hold its intended position, or moves sluggishly, is the primary symptom. If ignored, the spring will lose its lifting force entirely, potentially causing the supported panel to slam shut unexpectedly. This poses a significant risk of injury to personnel and damage to the panel itself.
Ensure the panel is securely propped open before attempting to remove the old gas spring, as it is under pressure and will no longer provide support. Align the mounting points carefully to avoid stressing the new spring during installation.
Inspect the mounting brackets and surrounding panel structure for any signs of stress or damage when replacing the gas spring.
