Lift Support Hatch 86246

This transparent automotive accessory is a lift support hatch designed to assist with opening and holding vehicle panels such as hoods, trunks, or rear hatches. It is intended for vehicle owners or repair shops replacing a worn or failed original unit.

Replaces a worn original lift support

The unit serves as a direct replacement when the existing strut no longer holds the hatch open or operates unevenly. The jump is worth it when the original component has lost pressure, leaks, or makes the panel unsafe to use.

Verify the part number before ordering

Confirm that part number 86246 matches the specification listed for your specific vehicle make, model, and year. Check the mounting style and extended length of the current hardware to ensure proper fitment.

Questions about this item

What mounting points does the 86246 lift support hatch require on the solar installation?

The 86246 lift support hatch is designed as an automotive accessory and mounts to existing hinge or latch points on the vehicle body; verify hole spacing and bracket style against your specific solar-equipped vehicle before fitting.

How is the transparent 86246 lift support installed, and which step is most often missed?

Align the strut ends with the factory mounting brackets, secure the retaining clips or bolts, then test the hatch travel; the step most often missed is confirming the strut orientation so the damping direction matches the hatch weight.

When will the 86246 lift support need replacement on a solar vehicle?

Replace the 86246 lift support when the hatch no longer stays open on its own, shows oil seepage on the transparent body, or after roughly five to seven years of daily cycles, whichever occurs first.
