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.

Questions about this item

What mounting points does the 86701 lift support hatch require?

The 86701 lift support hatch installs using the existing hinge and latch locations on the vehicle body, with no additional brackets needed.

Which step do installers often miss when fitting the 86701 hatch?

Installers often forget to support the hatch fully before removing the old struts, causing the panel to drop and misalign the new mounts.

When should the 86701 lift support struts be replaced?

Replace the struts when the hatch no longer stays open on its own or closes slower than normal, indicating lost gas pressure.
