A0019808464 Mercedes-Benz Trucks GASFEDER

These things basically use compressed gas – nitrogen usually – to provide controlled motion. Think of it like a really refined, powerful spring. They help lift, lower, or hold something open smoothly, instead of just letting it drop or requiring you to muscle it. You’ll find them doing that job with things like hoods, trunk lids, hatchbacks, even sometimes interior panels or cabinetry inside the vehicle. It's a supporting component, really. It doesn't make anything happen, but it makes it happen easier and more safely. For a hood, it counteracts the weight, so you don’t have to hold it up while you’re working on the engine. For a hatchback, it lifts it and keeps it open at whatever angle you set it to. They’re used in a lot of places where you need a gentle, controlled movement with some force involved. Well, if a gas spring goes bad, you'll notice if it's a hood or hatch pretty quickly – it'll either fall shut on you, or you'll have to physically hold it up. It's a safety issue, honestly. But even if it’s an interior panel, it can be annoying and potentially damage things if it slams down. They're not expensive parts generally, and replacing a bad one keeps things working properly and, more importantly, keeps you safe. We carry a good selection of them at Fixparts Online, and it’s usually pretty straightforward to find the right one for your vehicle.
