Automotive Lift Support Hatch
The FCS Struts 86701 Lift Support Hatch is a new automotive accessory finished in transparent. It is designed to assist with the opening and holding of hatches, hoods, or trunk lids on compatible vehicles. This component provides the necessary force to lift and secure panels safely during maintenance or cargo access.
Direct Replacement for Worn Struts
This lift support replaces original equipment that has lost pressure or failed to hold weight over time. The upgrade is worth it when the existing hatch becomes difficult to lift, drifts downward unexpectedly, or requires manual propping to stay open. Installation restores safe, hands-free operation of the rear compartment.
Transparent Gas-Charged Operation
The transparent body allows visual inspection of the internal rod and seal condition without removal. It comfortably handles the rated load for the specific vehicle application it matches. The unit runs out of effective force if the internal gas charge depletes or if the seals wear, requiring full replacement to regain function.
