Rear Tailgate Gas Strut Springs for Volvo XC90 MK1 2002-2014
Restore smooth and reliable operation to your Volvo XC90 MK1 tailgate with these reinforced gas pressure springs. Engineered specifically for vehicles built between 2002 and 2014, each strut delivers a precise 380N eject force to keep the boot lid securely elevated, eliminating dangerous drops and reducing undue strain on your factory hinge mechanisms.
Benefits & Practical Tips
- Direct bolt-on replacement uses standard mounting points, allowing a straightforward swap without modifying the tailgate frame or drilling new holes.
- Treat both sides simultaneously; worn dampers degrade unevenly, and installing a matched pair guarantees consistent lifting effort across the full travel range.
- Wipe the polished piston shaft clean with a dry microfiber cloth after washing to preserve the cylinder seals and prevent road grime abrasion.

Compatibility & Safety Reminders
Always verify your chassis year and hinge configuration before purchasing, as mid-cycle updates can alter bracket spacing. Use approved suspension clamps when compressing old struts to avoid injury from released internal pressure, and store removed units away from direct sunlight until replacement.
