Hold your engine bay open with steady, controlled motion using the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 4B-254575, a hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support that measures 15.35 inches. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 1978-1981 Buick Century and the 1978-1987 Buick Regal.
If a weak or leaking original strut is why your hood no longer stays up or feels heavy to raise, this lift support replaces it. For best results, replace in pairs so both sides hold and lower evenly.
