Most Liked Positive Review
I would buy this product again
The OEM lift support was difficult to remove. The ball studs could not be removed. The ball cup on the old support had to be cut off. Once the old unit was removed, the replacment unit was easily installed.
Most Liked Negative Review
Not worth the time it took to install...
I initially bought a pair of these "strong arm" replacements online for my 2005 350z & picked up at the Meridian, Idaho location... I was given a "mismatched set." Cosmetically, one had a "silver tone" arm & black chamber, the other black/black. The silver armed product was longer than the black one once installed (yes, I did install, if the only difference was cosmetic I figured I would probably be the only one to know...) & my hatch door would not latch closed evenly. So back to the store, argument with teenage clerk who tried to insist that they were indeed identical (even though the complete barcodes were different as well!) & then locate a matching pair at the Boise store... Clerk in Boise was nice, was careful to give me a matching pair & I was off for install round number two. The hatch door just dropped as if I had my old supports in place with the new parts in place. Don't waste your time, these don't work, quality control between production lots makes finding matching products difficult at best. I'm now waiting a week for an oem product to arrive from the dealer.

Excellent product and good price. Easy installation.
Direct Replacement for OEM on 2007 Nissan 350z
Verified Buyer - Submitted 5 years ago
Worked well replacing the OEM ones that have lost their luster over the years. Especially in cold weather. Perfect fitment on my 2007 350z. Pay attention to fitment of original. Specifically the orientation of the lower plate that attaches to the body. If install incorrectly, they will push up on the hatch and you will notice that the hatch will no longer sit flush w/ the roofline. I know by experience, unfortunately!
Easy to install and perform well
Verified Buyer - Submitted 5 years ago
The installation was very easy. Price is very reasonable. The product perform well. Warranty seems to be good.
seems stronger than the original lift
Verified Buyer - Submitted 10 years ago
If I would have known about this product, I would not have lived without it for 2 years. I was using a stick to hold my trunk up!!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Do I need to buy new brackets?
Verified Reply - Solomon
No, Greg, this Strong Arm Lift Support (Part # D4194) does not require a new bracket, you can reuse your existing bracket.
Does this come with 2 lift supports or just 1
Open Reply - Dennis
This Strong Arm Lift Support (Part# D4194) is sold individually and it fits either left or right side. For a vehicle you need to buy 2 of this product. For further assistance, you can visit your nearest Advance Auto store or call us directly at 1-877-ADVANCE (238-2623) and one of our representatives there would be more than happy to assist you.
I was looking for the lift support for the hatchback on my 2004 Nissan 350Z and found your part number D4194,Lift Support by Strong Arm. That is great, but there are two lift supports on the hatchback, a right hand one and a left hand one. I can't seem to understnad if this is the right hand one or the left one. In either case, can you identify the correct part numbers of rme? Sincerely, James Hill
Open Reply - Parts Guru Geo
Yes, this part fits your 2004 Nissan/Datsun 350Z. It will fit for both the left and right sides.
Open Reply - tr
They are either for left or right but should be replaced in pairs.
