Product Details

The StrongArm 6862 is a precision-engineered hood lift support designed to provide reliable, smooth operation for automotive hood applications. This pressurized gas cylinder replaces worn or failing factory lift supports to restore safe, hands-free hood operation.

  • Pressurized gas cylinder construction for consistent lifting force
  • Smooth operation throughout the entire range of motion
  • Direct replacement for worn factory hood struts
  • Durable construction for long-lasting performance

Installation Notes:

  • Always replace lift supports in pairs for balanced support and safe operation
  • Ensures even lifting force on both sides of the hood

The part i needed was easy to find with great shipping options and no hassle. I was irritated that I did not get a tracking number until the day my part was delivered though.

Hard to find FK rod ends. Items not in any kind of order and cannot populate the search engine with "FK 1/2 x 5/8 LH Rod End" and get results. Would also not take FK part number I tried. Be happy if all the parts were simply sorted better at least.

Best price

Need to find out shipping charges sooner in the transaction. Not cool how you have it set up.
