Parts Desk Insights
Best Use Case: Best used as a direct replacement when your existing hatch gas spring matches the same extended/compressed lengths and force rating. Always measure the mounting-point distance on the hatch and the deck (closed and open positions) so the stroke matches your installation.
Common Issues: If hatch lift feels weak/harsh or the hatch won’t hold position, the most common causes are mismatched output force, incorrect extended/compressed mounting distances, or missing/incorrect mounting hardware for the chosen bracket style.
