J.C. Whitney JRT63100005 Liftgate Lift Support OEM Replacement RH

The J.C. Whitney JRT63100005 is a direct-fit OEM replacement liftgate lift support designed for the right-hand (passenger) side liftgate of the Tesla Model X (2016–2022). This gas-charged strut replaces Tesla OEM reference 112969800A and is engineered to restore the proper hold-open force needed to keep the liftgate firmly supported in the open position.

Over time, liftgate lift supports lose their gas charge and can no longer hold the liftgate open — creating a safety hazard and an inconvenience during loading and unloading. This replacement strut is built to factory specifications, ensuring a precise fit and restoring full, reliable liftgate operation without modification.

Key Features:

• Direct OEM replacement — engineered to match original factory specifications
• Replaces Tesla OEM part reference 112969800A
• Restores proper liftgate hold-open force and operation
• Right-hand (passenger) side application
• Gas-pressurized lift support for smooth, controlled liftgate movement
• Corrosion-resistant construction for long service life
• No drilling or modification required for installation
• Backed by J.C. Whitney's 1-year unlimited-mileage warranty

This lift support is a straightforward replacement that can typically be completed with basic hand tools, making it an ideal DIY repair to eliminate a sagging or falling liftgate and restore factory-level functionality.
