It is recommended to replace your lift supports in pairs to ensure the performance and safety of the related component, such as your hood, hatchback, or liftgate.

  • Periodically clean the surface of the rod with a dry, soft cloth.
  • Do not use oil, silicone, adhesives, or anything that might leave a sticky residue on the rod, which could ultimately attract dust or dirt.
  • Avoid anything that could scratch the rod, such as clamps or clips.
  • Avoid abrasive household cleaners, as they can scratch the rod as well.

Signs of wear for lift supports include but are not limited to:

  • Lift support slowly closing/lowering after opening/raising
  • Support not fully opening
