AMS Automotive Trunk Lid Lift Support

AMS Automotive trunk lid lift supports, also called trunk lid gas struts, trunk shocks or deck lid lift supports, are pressurized gas cylinders. They raise the trunk lid and hold it open, so loading and unloading is easier. Replacing worn supports restores that function. A worn support lets the lid sag or drop.

Key Features:

• Gas-charged design: Compressing the gas inside the cylinder stores energy. Opening the lid releases that energy to lift the lid and keep it open.
• Custom engineered: Each AMS lift support is built to the specific application. This gives smooth operation and long service life.
• Tested for performance: After assembly, each support is tested in several positions during compression and extension to check speed and force. It also goes through overload testing to confirm structural integrity and safety.
• Application-specific fit: The supports are made to match particular trunk lid applications. This gives correct force and proper mounting.
• End fittings: Each support has end fittings for mounting at the body and the lid.

Lift supports are best replaced in pairs. This keeps lid support balanced and reliable on both sides. AMS Automotive offers a wide range of lift supports. Choose the individual part number that matches your application.
