Description

The Infiniti FX35 / FX45 Left Rear Hatch Shock (90452-CG81A) is a genuine-quality replacement part designed to restore the effortless lift and secure hold of your SUV’s rear hatch.

This OEM-specification replacement delivers the same dependable performance as the original, ensuring your hatch operates smoothly and safely.

Manufactured for Infiniti FX35 and FX45 models from 2003 to 2008, this left-side rear hatch shock is engineered to match Infiniti’s factory standards in size, pressure, and mounting configuration. The high-pressure gas-filled cylinder delivers consistent lift assistance, while its corrosion-resistant steel body ensures long-term durability even in demanding conditions.
