Product Details

The StrongArm 6408 is a precision-engineered trunk lid lift support designed to provide smooth, reliable operation for your vehicle's trunk or decklid. This pressurized gas cylinder strut eliminates the need to manually prop open your trunk, offering convenient hands-free access to your cargo area.

Key Features:

  • Custom-engineered design manufactured to exceed OEM industry standards
  • Pressurized gas cylinder construction for consistent lifting force
  • Smooth, controlled motion throughout the entire range of travel
  • Durable construction for extended service life in automotive environments
  • Direct replacement for worn or failed factory lift supports

Installation Notes:

Lift supports should always be replaced in pairs to ensure balanced support and safe operation of your trunk lid. Replacing only one strut can result in uneven lifting force and potential safety hazards.

StrongArm lift supports are widely used across automotive applications including trunk lids, hatches, hoods, and rear window glass, as well as various non-automotive applications requiring controlled motion support.

Excellent everything went well thank you

Great

great price. on time.

This was an awesome experience. I thought I was going to have to have 2 days of car work due to not ordering in time, but apparently what I needed, shipped from Commerce City (and I live in Colorado) and it showed up in 2 days during the busiest ship time of the year. Also was the cheapest price by quite a bit.

Quick & easy

no core and free shipping. Incredible! now if it gets here before the 21st i will be in business!

good pricing and easy to order online from Autoplicity

Super pricing, fast shipments, good selection they have it all.

Good site everything does what it's supposed to do.

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.

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

Easy ordering.
