68960-0W400 Stay Assy, Back Door, Lh Fits Toyota Ractis NCP100

Product Description

Product Function Description

he 68960-0W400 Toyota Stay Assembly, Back Door LH is a genuine OEM lift support for the left-hand side of the rear hatch or back door on select Toyota vehicles. Also known as a back door stay, lift cylinder, or hatch lift support, this component is a gas- or spring-charged strut that holds the rear door open securely and controls its motion when closing. It provides essential support, preventing the door from slamming shut or dropping unexpectedly, which is particularly important for loading and unloading cargo.

The stay assembly uses a system of dampening and controlled movement, often with hydraulic or spring-assisted technology, to allow the door to hold its position when lifted and close smoothly when pulled down. Over time, the internal gas seal can wear out, leading to a weak or failed strut that can no longer support the weight of the door.

This is a genuine Toyota OEM part, manufactured to original equipment specifications for a precise fit and reliable operation. The assembly is designed for the left-hand (LH) position of the rear door.
