Product Details

The AMS Automotive 6116 is a gas-charged lift support designed specifically for Cadillac liftgate applications. This precision-engineered strut provides reliable support to raise your liftgate and hold it safely in the open position, eliminating the need for manual propping.

How Gas-Charged Lift Supports Work:

Gas-charged lift supports function as energy storage devices by compressing nitrogen gas inside a sealed cylinder. When the liftgate is closed, energy is stored under compression. As you open the liftgate, this stored energy is released in a controlled manner to assist in raising the hatch and maintaining it in the open position.

Quality Testing and Manufacturing:

  • Each lift support is tested in four different positions during compression and extension to verify proper speed and force
  • Subjected to two overload tests to ensure structural integrity and safety
  • Custom engineered and manufactured beyond industry standards
  • Designed to provide smoother operation and extended service life

Important Installation Note:

Lift supports should always be replaced in pairs to ensure balanced, safe, and reliable operation of your liftgate. Installing only one new strut while leaving an old, worn strut in place can result in uneven support and potential safety issues.

This lift support is application-specific for Cadillac vehicles and must match your exact vehicle requirements for safe and effective operation.
