ZF Aftermarket has added 12 new hood lift and liftgate supports to its TRW X-tend Lift Support product line for the U.S. and Canada. With these additions, ZF increased its coverage to vehicles including the Ford F-150 and the Chevy Silverado pickup trucks.
"Whether it's a hood or liftgate, a dependable lift support is critical to maintaining vehicle safety and ease of use," said Filipe Dornelas, North America passenger car leader for ZF Aftermarket. "With TRW X-tend Lift Supports, we’re delivering OE-level quality and durability that users and distributors can count on to keep vehicles on the road, running smoothly and safely."
The TRW X-Tend Lift Supports feature a black nitride rod with a smooth finish that resists corrosion. It features a low-wear piston with a durable O-Ring seal with an engineered polymer guide, to help separate the chambers of the body for a long service life, as well as anti-spin fittings with a thread lock so they don’t become unseated before installation. Comes with a Limited Lifetime warranty.
The move will strengthen Allison's position with customers in construction, mining, and ag, while allowing Dana to streamline its commercial vehicle product lines.
