Note: Always replace your struts in pairs, where applicable. Most liftgates have a strut on each side. Failure to replace both struts can result in a warped or damaged hinge.
Gas Strut with Exceptional Stability
Most gas struts consist of a tube filled with pressurized nitrogen gas, a piston, and rod. The Atlas Lift strut, however, has a dynamic damping groove inside the tube that regulates gas movement across the piston. This ensures your liftgate stays open when you want it open and shuts slowly without slamming. Lastly, in contrast to struts that only have gas in the chamber, a few drops of oil have been mixed in to help seal the piston and lubricate the rod. This allows your liftgate to move more smoothly as the rod travels in and out of the tube.

Hi, everybody. Andy here with etrailer.com. Let's take a real quick look at this custom fit liftgate lift support. Now, this has been designed to fit your 1990 to 1993 Acura Integra, both the hatchback and sedan models. And on custom fit parts such as this liftgate lift support, I do recommend taking advantage of our vehicle fit guide here at etrailer.com. Simply input the year, make, and model of your vehicle and our fit guide will confirm if this will work for you or if we have something comparable that will work for you.
So this is going to replace one worn-out or a damaged ball-and-socket gas strut on your Integra's liftgate. And the dampening groove inside the tube is going to prevent bouncing, giving you a smooth operation in any temperature, extending the rod from the tube to open the liftgate and hold it in place, and then compressing the rod slowly to close the liftgate without slamming it shut. The internal wiper is going to prevent sticking and reduce friction by lubricating the rod with oil. The black powder-coated steel tube and nitrate-coated rod are rust resistant. This is going to be a quick installation.
The ball socket ends are going to connect directly to your vehicle's OEM fittings. And then let me go ahead and just lay this back down on my table, line that up there. I wanna see if I can give you the extended length measurement. So measuring on center, it looks like we're sitting right at 31 13/16 inches. Center-to-center on that extended length and the compressed length is going to be 19 1/8 inches.
You are going to get this one lift support, but as you probably know, it's always a good idea to replace your struts in pairs where applicable. Most liftgates have a strut on each side and failure to replace both struts could result in a warped or damaged hinge. This does have a limited lifetime warranty from the manufacturer. If you do decide to pick this up, we would love to hear back from you regarding how the installation went, how it's working out for you. You can share your experiences with us by dropping a comment or leaving a review on this product page.
And if you have any other questions, questions that maybe I didn't get to answer with you today, don't hesitate to give us a call as well. We'd love to help you out. Well, that's gonna wrap up our look today. I do hope that it was helpful for you. Again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
