There are trunk supports on both side and if you only replaced one, then the other may also be bad, one other note there are two types, with a trunk spoiler and without, the trunk spoiler shocks are stronger because of the added weight. The parts catalog calls them gas springs, the part number for the trunk with spoiler is 3512998, I couldn't find the non-spoiler. --

Thanks Rich! You were correct on all counts. I had replaced the good one. So I just put the one I had removed on the otherside and it now works fine. The part number for the non spoiler lift is 3509350. Thanks again.
