When original lift supports weaken, the tailgate sags, rattles, or refuses to maintain an open position, making daily access frustrating and leaving the cabin exposed to drafts and rain. These aftermarket units deliver consistent 100N lifting force to keep the boot flap steady at any angle while maintaining a tight weather seal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt with stainless steel cylinders and reinforced polymer end caps, these struts replicate factory mounting geometry and bolt directly into place using existing hardware. Engineered to interchange with OEM numbers 87170-3E000, 87170-3E010, 87180-3E000, and 87180-3E010, the system requires zero fabrication. The precise 360 mm extended measurement guarantees balanced tension and proper clearance throughout the full swing arc.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eBenefits \u0026amp; Installation Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDegrease anchor points\u003c\/strong\u003e before seating the ball studs to eliminate binding and extend service life.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightly coat the polished stem with white lithium grease during first compression; this primes internal seals and eliminates early-stage squeaking.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCycle the rear window fully open and closed three times after fitting to distribute nitrogen pressure evenly across both units.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtended Length: 360 mm ±2 mm (centre hole to centre hole)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEject Force: 100 N\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction Materials: Metal shaft and body with plastic housing caps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting Position: Rear window \/ tailgate (driver and passenger sides)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirect Replacement Codes: 87170-3E000, 87170-3E010, 87180-3E000, 87180-3E010\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVehicle Application: Kia Sorento JC 2002–2009\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003ePackage includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2× Rear Tailgate Gas Struts (Left and Right Pair)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eImportant Reminders\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese lift supports contain sealed inert gas and must never be drilled, heated, or forcefully dismantled.
