ACDelco 85622331 GM Original Equipment Hood Lift Support Strut

The ACDelco 85622331 is a GM Original Equipment hood lift support strut designed to hold your vehicle's hood securely in the open position during inspections and maintenance. As a true OE part, it is manufactured and validated by General Motors to meet the same fit, form, and function as the component originally installed at the factory.

Key Features:

• Gas-pressurized design provides smooth, consistent support for the hood in its open position
• Chromed inner rod resists rust and corrosion for a longer service life
• Self-cleaning piston assembly delivers reliable, consistent performance over time
• Black steel outer cylinder for durability and OE appearance
• Fully open length of 12.87 inches (327.66 mm)
• Compressed length of 203 mm
• Cylinder outside diameter of 19 mm; inner shaft diameter of 8 mm
• Blade hole end fitting (End 1 Type)
• Meets or exceeds original equipment manufacturer specifications
• No programming required — direct OE replacement

For best results, it is recommended to mount the lift strut with the shaft pointing downward and to replace hood struts in pairs to ensure balanced support and safe hood operation. Avoid contact with oils, silicones, adhesives, or abrasive clamps on the rod to protect finish and performance.
