Reconnect your power liftgate's motor to the gate with the Dorman OE Solutions Liftgate Lift / Pull Down Motor Link Rod / Power Liftgate Cylinder, part number 747-030. This left-side unit is a direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2019 Ford Explorer and the 2016-2019 Ford Police Interceptor Utility.
The rod links the liftgate opening/closing motor to the liftgate. If the original rod or strut has failed from an internal component malfunction, pressure loss or collision impact, this unit is engineered to re-establish that connection. Dorman lists the part under both names: liftgate lift / pull down motor link rod and left power liftgate cylinder.
- Direct replacement: designed to replicate the fit, function and performance of the original equipment rod or strut on the listed applications
- Ideal solution: reconnects the liftgate opening/closing motor and the liftgate when the factory strut has failed
- Durable construction: designed and built to strict specifications for reliable performance
- Trustworthy quality: supported by Dorman's product experts in the United States and more than a century of automotive experience
This part may need replacing if the power liftgate stalls or won't open or close fully, or if the motor runs but the gate doesn't move. Diagnose the cause before replacing, because the motor, latch or wiring can produce similar symptoms. See the Buyer's Guide tab for complete fitment details.
