Stabilus Back Glass Lift Support P/N:4B-1696XR
Keep the rear glass rising smoothly and holding open with the Stabilus Back Glass Lift Support 4B-348705, an 18.98-inch gas-charged lift support with dynamic damping speed control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2009 Land Rover LR3 and 2010-2016 Land Rover LR4 (see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine details).
This is a Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus, which uses a longitudinal groove — a velocity manifold — pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping tuned for this application. The groove profile narrows gradually toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
For best results, replace lift supports in pairs so both sides raise and hold the glass evenly.

A longitudinal groove (velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall lets gas flow around the piston, with the groove narrowing toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
Should I replace both lift supports at once?
For best results, replace them in pairs. Matched supports help both sides raise and hold the glass evenly.
Are special tools needed to install it?
No. This lift support is easy to install and requires no special tools, and its coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
