FCS Struts 86199 Tailgate Lift Support
The FCS Struts 86199 is a transparent lift support designed for automotive tailgate applications. It assists with controlled opening and holding of rear hatches on compatible vehicles. This new accessory suits owners replacing worn original struts.
Practical limits of the gas-spring mechanism
Force output is fixed at manufacture and cannot be adjusted for different tailgate weights. Performance varies with temperature extremes and the unit cannot be recharged or repaired once pressure drops. Buyers needing variable force or serviceable dampers should look elsewhere.
Build quality and mounting implications
Transparent housing allows visual inspection of the rod and seals for early leak detection. Standard ball-socket or eyelet ends fit factory mounting points without modification. Direct manufacturer shipping means the strut arrives ready to install with no intermediate handling.

Questions about this item
Is the 86199 model the correct lift support for my vehicle's tailgate?
The 86199 is a specific FCS Struts part number; you must verify fitment against your vehicle's year, make, and model before ordering.
How does the transparent color affect the lift support's performance on a tailgate?
The transparent finish is a cosmetic choice for the housing and does not change the internal gas pressure or damping force of the strut.
What does the automotive accessories classification mean for installation requirements?
It confirms the 86199 is designed as a direct replacement tailgate strut for bolt-on installation using existing mounting points.
