Rear Tailgate Gas Lift Struts for BMW 3 Series E91 05-12
Replace sagging trunk lids and restore smooth, controlled motion to your BMW 3 Series E91 Estate (2005–2012) with these precision-tuned rear tailgate gas lift struts. Engineered as direct replacements for OEM number 51247127875, each unit delivers a steady 450N ejection force to keep the boot lid securely suspended while opening. Constructed from heavy-duty steel with a protective black coating, they resist rust and handle daily temperature fluctuations without losing pressure. These aftermarket gas springs eliminate the frustration of manually holding up a heavy tailgate, making cargo loading safer and significantly easier.
Benefits & Practical Tips
- Controlled Opening: The calibrated gas pressure prevents sudden closure impacts, protecting your vehicle's paint and reducing wear on interior trim.
- Seamless Bolt-On Swap: Match the original mounting points exactly; no drilling or bracket modifications are required during installation.
- Maintenance Advice: Wipe down the piston rod periodically to remove road grime, and avoid forcing the struts beyond their full extension to preserve internal seals.
