Product Details

The StrongArm 4973 is a premium gas-charged lift support designed to provide smooth, reliable operation for liftgates, hatches, and rear glass applications. This pressurized cylinder is custom-engineered to meet OEM specifications while exceeding industry standards for durability and performance.

Key Features:

  • Gas-charged pressurized cylinder for consistent lifting force
  • Engineered to OEM specifications for precise fitment
  • Built to exceed industry standards for extended service life
  • Smoother operation compared to worn factory struts
  • Prevents liftgate or hatch from falling unexpectedly

Installation Note: Lift supports should always be replaced in pairs to ensure balanced support and safe operation of your vehicle's liftgate or hatch. Replacing only one strut can result in uneven lifting force and premature failure.

StrongArm lift supports restore proper function to sagging or failed liftgates, providing the support needed to hold your hatch open securely during loading and unloading.

Excellent customer service....<br>fast delivery<br>and good quality parts<br><br>

quick

My second time ordering from Autoplicity. I price shop online and Autoplicity had the lowest price both times. Fast ship with email notifications. Autoplicity will now be my "First" site I go to for my auto accessories. Great job Autoplicity.

Great prices, quick shipping, customer service a bit difficult to reach. But, after reaching customer service, issue was resolved without a problem.

I hope the product is as good as the speed I received the item. I even made a mistake on my order, and it still arrived fast. Thanx, will do business with again.

Excellent low price, super fast shipping, and great communication. Top notch seller. Recommend highly!!

Order arrived quickly and was exactly as described. Great prices and service!

best price, appreciate shipping discount
