Installation Notes

Replace gas struts in pairs even if only one has failed — a tired strut paired with a fresh one creates uneven loading and shortens the new one's life. Mount with the shaft pointing downward when the panel is closed (this keeps the seal lubricated and extends service life). Support the panel during fitting and never compress a strut by force. Most installations take 10–20 minutes with basic tools.

Signs You Need New Struts

• Panel drops on its own, won't stay up
• Slow or sluggish lift — particularly bad in cold weather
• Visible oil residue on the chrome shaft, or hissing when compressed
• You're propping the panel with a stick or wedge
