Toyota Lift Supports Online

A lift support, or hood strut is a tubular arm that helps make it easier for you to open either your Toyota vehicle's hood or trunk. It's usually bolted on or clipped in, and aides when you're performing an inspection, undertaking repairs, or loading in groceries, sports equipment, or luggage.

Lift supports rely on a compression system to work. Many are gas-charged. They pressurize gas inside a cylinder, storing a charge of up to 1500 psi. When the cylinder opens, the energy is released and holds up the component related to the lift support.

Unfortunately, lift supports can eventually wear out whether due to excessive use or exposure to temperature extremes. When you find it hard to hold up your hood or hatch, that's a sign that you're experiencing a loss of gas pressure and need to replace your lift support.
