Hood Lift Support 86372

This FCS Struts component is a transparent hood lift support designed for automotive applications. It assists in raising and holding a vehicle bonnet open for engine access or maintenance. The unit is supplied new and carries the manufacturer part number 86372.

Replaces worn factory struts

When original lift supports lose pressure, the bonnet can fall unexpectedly or become difficult to raise. Installing this replacement restores reliable opening force and hands-free operation. The upgrade is worth it once the original equipment no longer holds the hood securely in the fully open position.

Transparent gas-charged cylinder

The sealed cylinder provides consistent lift force for standard bonnet weights encountered during routine checks. It runs out of travel at the fully extended length defined by the vehicle mounting points and cannot compensate for heavier aftermarket panels or added insulation.

How is the 86372 hood lift support installed, and what step do people often miss?
