LiftGate Lift Support

Liftgate Lift supports, also known as liftgate struts or liftgate shocks, are mechanical components that are used to support the weight of a liftgate or hatch on a vehicle. Liftgate supports are typically made of metal or plastic and are designed to attach to both the liftgate and the vehicle’s body.And Lift supports are pressurized cylinders that are used to support hoods, hatches and rear window glass in automotive applications. Lift supports are also used in many non-automotive applications. Each Excellent lift support is custom engineered, and manufactured beyond industry standards to provide smoother operating, and longer lasting performance. Lift supports should be replaced in pairs to ensure safe, reliable support of your hood, hatch, or liftgate.

The lift gate supports work by using gas pressure or a spring-loaded mechanism to help lift and hold the liftgate open. When the liftgate is opened, the liftgate lift support expand and push against the weight of the liftgate, creating a counterforce that helps to support the weight of the liftgate.

Over time, liftgate supports can become worn or damaged, which can cause the liftgate to become difficult to open or close, or to not stay open. If you notice any problems with your liftgate, such as it not staying open, it’s important to have the liftgate support struts checked and replaced if necessary, as they play a crucial role in the proper functioning of your vehicle’s liftgate.
