Restore proper hatch operation on your Ford Telstar AX Mazda GE 626 with this pair of hatch gas struts from Nitro Struts. The hatch on these models is heavy — when the original struts give up, you can't safely load groceries or gear without something propping it open. This direct OEM-spec replacement fixes that for a fraction of dealer pricing.

Installation Notes
Hatch strut replacement is a straightforward DIY job — typically 10–15 minutes per side with no special tools. Prop the hatch fully open (or have someone support it) before unclipping the old struts. Replace in pairs — a new strut against a tired one will overwork the new strut and shorten its life.
Signs You Need New Struts
- Hatch drops or sags on its own
- Slow, weak rise — particularly noticeable in cold weather
- Visible oil on the chrome shaft, or hissing when compressed
- You're holding the hatch up while loading the boot

These boot struts are first class. Boot operation has been transformed from falling down on your head in the slightest breeze to easy up/ down just like new again probably even better. The struts are beautifully made and easy to fit.
Good quick service too.
