Product Information

Trunk Lid Lift Support

The trunk lid lift support, also sometimes called a trunk strut or trunk shock, is a gas-charged cylinder that helps support and lift the trunk lid of a vehicle. Some trunk lift supports are also electric or hydraulic depending on the vehicle’s equipment. The trunk lift support assists the opening of the trunk or hatch, making it easier to open and sometimes opening it automatically. When you open the trunk, the lifting rod extends to push the lid open, ensuring it stays in place. Trunk lid supports remove the need to hold the trunk while loading and unloading and prevent it from slamming shut accidentally. Most European vehicles have a pair of supports, but occasionally there is just one. They are usually held onto the body and the trunk via posts and retaining clips, making them an easy DIY for most vehicle owners.

As a vehicle ages and the trunk support goes through hundreds of actuations, trunk lid lift supports will wear out and fail primarily due to the internal seal on the extending rod failing and losing pressure. When that happens, the trunk lid will feel heavier to open and slam shut unexpectedly. When replacing trunk lid supports that use a flat clip and post-mounting design, we recommend wearing some type of mechanic gloves since the retaining clips can be somewhat sharp and move unexpectedly when applying leverage with a screwdriver.

Trunk Lid Lift Support Failure Symptoms
  • Internal Leaks: If the gas piston is leaking internally, the trunk lid lift support won’t be able to leverage the trunk open
  • Age/Corrosion/Rust: If the trunk lift supports are exposed to the elements or are very old, it could hinder smooth operation, causing dead spots in the operation

Replacement of OEM lift supports with Vaico brand
The Stabilus brand was more expensive for the decklid so I decided to try these Vaico brand ones since FCP Euro carried them and trusted their selections. The Vaicos installed about 1/8" - 1/4" longer than the Volvo (had to compress to get the socket to line up to ball stud on decklid). The gassing is not correctly set up - it doesn't provide enough assist at initial opening and then at half to full decklid opening, it accelerates too fast. In fact, when I let go of the decklid at half open position - the decklid swung open so hard that it cracked off both plastic caps on the open limiters on the hinges (I now have metal to metal hinge contact and will need to purchase new rubber/plastic bumpers). I would not buy these again and will stick to OEM or Stabilus. I have bought Stabilus in the past and they matched OEM gas pressure set up.
