81780D7000 Liftgate Lift Supports: Why Won’t Your Tailgate Stay Open?

08/02/2026 Suikie Cheng


81780D7000 Liftgate Lift Supports are designed for Hyundai Tucson 2016–2021 manual tailgates. Built with high-strength steel and a reliable sealing system, they provide stable lifting force and smooth operation, making them an ideal replacement for worn Hyumdai Tucson Boot Struts and Hyundai Tucson Tailgate Struts.

81780D7000 Liftgate Lift Supports: Why Won’t Your Tailgate Stay Open?

Hyundai Tucson Rear Liftgate Lift Supports are the key components that support the rear tailgate of your Hyundai Tucson. If your boot door slowly drops, feels heavy when opening, or won’t stay up—especially in cold weather—your boot struts are likely worn out and need replacement.

Hyundai Tucson Tailgate Struts, also known as Liftgate Lift Supports, are designed to:

  • Hold the tailgate open safely

  • Assist smooth lifting and closing

  • Prevent sudden drops and injuries

When these struts fail, everyday use becomes inconvenient and unsafe.

Hyumdai Tucson Boot Struts: Is Replacement Easy?

Hyumdai Tucson Boot Struts are very easy to replace:

  • Clip-on installation design

  • No special tools required

  • One-person DIY job

  • Around 10–15 minutes per strut

For best performance, replacing both Hyundai Tucson Tailgate Struts at the same time is recommended.


Hyundai Tucson Tailgate Struts FAQ

Q1: Is 81780D7000 sold as a single strut or a pair?
A: Most sellers offer it as a single strut. Replacing both sides together is recommended.

Q2: Can standard Liftgate Lift Supports be used on a power tailgate?
A: No. Power tailgates require electric lift supports only.

Q3: Why does the tailgate open too forcefully after installation?
A: The gas force may be incorrect, or the strut is not the right specification.

Q4: Do Hyumdai Tucson Boot Struts fail faster in winter?
A: Cold temperatures reduce gas pressure, but sudden dropping usually indicates aging.

 

Q5: Can 81780 d7000 replace other 81770-series struts?
A: Not recommended. Length and force ratings may differ.
