What do car lift supports do?
Lift supports, also known as gas struts, serve a crucial role in the operation of various components in modern cars. The gas-filled struts within the lift supports help counterbalance the weight of these heavy components, making them easier to open and close with minimal manual effort. This not only improves the user experience for the vehicle owner but also adds an element of convenience by allowing smooth, controlled motion when accessing the trunk, engine bay, or rear cargo area.
Symptoms of the gas strut failure
- Sluggish or uneven opening/closing: If the trunk, hood, or other component supported by lift supports seems to open or close more slowly, unevenly, or with increased effort, it may indicate that the lift support is weakening or failing.
- Sagging or drooping: When lift support is no longer providing adequate support, the component it is meant to hold up may begin to sag or droop when in the open position.
- Leaking gas: Over time, the gas-filled cylinder inside the lift support can develop leaks, causing a gradual loss of pressure and reduced lifting force.
- Extended settling time: Properly functioning lift supports should hold the component up steadily. If it begins to slowly settle down on its own, it suggests the lift support is not maintaining sufficient pressure.
- Visible damage or wear: Cracks, dents, or other physical damage to the lift support itself can compromise its integrity and performance.
Lift support (Gas struts) are subjected to breakage and damage. Identifying lift support failure is crucial for maintaining the functionality and safety of various automotive and non-automotive applications that use these support mechanisms.
