Product Details

The StrongArm 6197 is a precision-engineered liftgate lift support designed to provide reliable, smooth operation for your vehicle's rear hatch or liftgate. This pressurized gas cylinder is manufactured to exceed industry standards, ensuring consistent support and extended service life.

Key Features:

  • Custom-engineered gas strut designed for specific vehicle applications
  • Pressurized cylinder construction for smooth, controlled lifting and lowering
  • Premium materials and manufacturing for durability and longevity
  • Direct replacement for worn or failed factory lift supports
  • Engineered to restore proper opening and closing functionality

Lift supports should always be replaced in pairs to maintain balanced support and ensure safe operation of your liftgate. Over time, gas struts lose pressure and fail to properly support the weight of the hatch, creating a safety hazard. The StrongArm 6197 restores your liftgate to factory performance, providing the support needed to hold your hatch open securely during loading and unloading.

I ordered 3 items and they were sent in 3 separate package. Two package arrived on one day and the 3rd one the next day. The items looked good; however, It would have been nice if everything came in one package. The picture of the items ordered aren't the same as what I received. I'm assuming by that maybe the picture in some cases is just represntational Of the product. The items ordered are a good fit for my vehicle.

Fast, cheap, easy

Easy and accurate

Pretty straight forward. So far so good!

Received my package with correct item, I will definitely order more parts or items in the near future. Thanks

Order filled promptly. Very pleased with purchase. Highly recommend Autoplicity!!

I've worked easier sites, but overall fairly straitforward. Would buy from again.

Great pricing!! cheapest products on the web!

Your competitive pricing won my business through the internet and I wasn't disappointed. The price was great ( about 1/2 MSRP) and item was shipped very quickly. No backorder problems here! I was impressed with the quality of my H pipe and with the packaging.

I really like how prompt the order went through and the quality of the part im getting

Great place to shop online. The best price on the internet and super fast delivery. Shop with Autoplicity, highly recommended.

Autoplicity had the best price for my Thule 867 roof rack cargo bag. It was easy to pay thru my Amazon accont and the order shipped within 24 hours of my placing the order.

I only gave them a 3 star raring on their shipping because I went on their site on Tuesday and the order said it had not been shipped. On Wednesday I received my shipment. The left hand needs to figure out what the right hand is doing. Other than that, GREAT

Fast shipping and good prices. I would shop this site again.
