Review on 🚗 OCPTY Gas Springs Shocks SG430086 Lift Supports Strut: Fits Cadillac CTS 2008-2014 Rear Trunk by Arnold Robles

Revainrating 3 out of 5

But it fits. on shocks, struts and suspension

They will fit and provide more lift than worn OEM blocks. While the bearing racks have end bushings that match the different sized balls on the hull support linkage, the new assemblies use the same bushings on both ends, allowing for a loose and sloppy fit on the smaller upper ends of the balls. They also provide too much buoyancy, so you have to hold onto the trunk lid to keep it from opening suddenly. With the factory kickstands the lid slammed quite hard unless lowered by hand, now it has to be gently pushed down to snap into place. I can take them back to better Sachs or Strongarm racks or just live with it, I haven't decided yet.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
