Q&A

A single Ford Cougar tailgate/boot gas strut manufactured in the UK with a 2 year warranty and new end fixings. Replaces part number(s) 98BGC406A10AD.

UK Made - not a cheap imitation from the Far East or EU.

We recommend always replacing struts as a pair to keep the force even between them - often replacing just one strut causes the older strut to fail soon after. This is because even if an old strut hasn’t totally failed, it will have lost pressure and matching it with a new strut will cause unequal forces between the two struts, side loading and premature failure of both struts.

    After failing to obtain tailgate support struts for my 20 year old Ford Cougar from an alternative supplier who sent the wrong ones (second hand too, although not described as such) I was beginning to despair. I was very pleased when SGS Engineering offered to supply the correct items. SGS were patient, prompt and helpful in dealing with my e-mailed queries. When the struts arrived they were not only new but cheaper too and more importantly they're working well. I am impressed and grateful and would not hesitate to recommend SGS for their excellent service and attention to detail.

    after being let down by three other sites i thought i would have one last go at getting the tailgate struts for my cougar , am i glad i did.
    SGS not only found the right struts i needed but they arrived next day not being any good at car maintanace i gave customer sevice a ring and they talked me though the fiiting. what a wonderful service this has been. Good product, well packed for delivery and the after service is five star as well

    Houston we have lift off!!
    OMG! replacing the old struts on my Cougar with these NitroLift Struts was literally a 5 minute job and now the boot lifts open brilliantly. No more embarrassing boot falling on head incidents will be happening in tescos car parks ;)
