Land Rover Part Number: LR135655 - Upper Tailgate Strut
LR135655 is an upper tailgate strut fitted to the luggage compartment door. Located at the upper mounting point of the tailgate, the strut uses a gas-spring arrangement to carry the door load when opened, counterbalance door weight, damp the speed of travel and hold the door in the open position. Typical service indicators include reduced holding force or abrupt movement when opening or closing; replacement restores consistent support and controlled motion. Correct alignment of the ball-stud mounts and secure attachment at the upper mounting point are required for proper installation.
