Product Identity

The FCS Struts 86577 is a transparent lift support hood designed as an automotive accessory. It serves vehicle owners who need a replacement gas spring for bonnet or hatch operation. Buyers seeking solar energy equipment will find this item does not meet that need.

Sustained Operation

The strut uses compressed gas to provide consistent lifting force throughout its travel range. It counters hood weight reliably during repeated daily cycles without the fade associated with short-burst testing. Performance remains stable across normal driving seasons.

Build and Mounting

A transparent finish allows visual inspection of the rod and seal condition without removal. Standard end fittings match original mounting points for direct bolt-on installation. The automotive-grade construction resists road salt and temperature extremes.

Questions about this item

Does the 86577 lift support generate any heat or noise during continuous daily operation?

The 86577 is a passive gas-charged strut with no moving electrical parts, so it produces no heat, noise, or power draw while holding the hood open all day.

What mounting points or brackets must already be on the vehicle for the 86577 to install correctly?

The 86577 fits the factory hood hinge and latch positions; the vehicle must retain its original OEM ball-stud or eyelet mounts on both the hood and body structure.

Will the transparent 86577 strut match the force curve of the original equipment on an older model year?

The 86577 is calibrated to the same extended and compressed lengths as the OE unit, so it replicates the factory lift force on older vehicles that share the same hood geometry.
