Hold the rear liftgate up and steady with the Focus Auto Parts Liftgate Lift Support (MPN 84211). This gas-charged lift support is a direct-fit replacement for the 1981-1984 Toyota Starlet (All engines), where it mounts at the rear and uses internal gas pressure to raise the liftgate and hold it open. Over time a worn support can let the hatch drift down or feel heavy to lift — signs this part may need replacing.
- Rear liftgate application: supports and holds the rear liftgate open on the listed Starlet.
- Gas-charged strut: uses internal gas pressure to counterbalance the hatch weight for a controlled, assisted lift.
- Measured dimensions: 9.45 in stroke, 13.82 in compressed length, and 23.27 in extended length.
- Country of origin: China.
The listed Starlet uses two supports per application, so order two for a complete, balanced replacement. Replacing both sides together is good practice so the hatch rises and holds evenly.
Fitment: 1981-1984 Toyota Starlet [All] — order 2.
