Automotive lift support hood

The FCS STRUTS 86317 is a transparent lift support hood designed for automotive accessory applications. It provides replacement or upgrade support for vehicle hood mechanisms. This new component suits owners needing a direct-fit strut for compatible models.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive mechanical strut, the unit generates no heat, produces no audible noise and draws no electrical power during normal operation. Its function relies solely on internal gas pressure to assist hood movement. No thermal management or power supply is required for this accessory.

Transparent finish and branding

The transparent colour allows visual inspection of the strut body while matching a variety of engine-bay aesthetics. Branding is limited to the FCS STRUTS name with no additional software, mounting hardware or electronic accessories included in the package.

Questions about this item

How do I install the FCS STRUTS 86317 lift support hood, and which step do people usually get wrong?

Support the hood fully before removing the old struts; the common mistake is letting the hood drop while swapping the 86317 units.

What maintenance or replacement will the transparent lift support need later?

Inspect the rod seals for leaks every oil change; replace the 86317 struts once the hood no longer stays open on its own.

What limit appears first on the 86317 struts under sustained daily cycles?

The gas-charge pressure drops first, causing the hood to sag before the transparent body shows wear.
