Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:4B-886729

$30.99

Description

Hold the hood open steadily and take the strain out of every under-hood job with the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 4B-886729, a 16.69-inch gas-charged lift support that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2014-2020 Acura RLX. This is a Lift-O-Mat unit built on the OE design, so it matches the original's fit, form, and function.

Dynamic damping speed control: a longitudinal velocity-manifold groove pressed into the tube wall routes gas around the piston, creating a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
Gentle, controlled stop: the groove profile narrows toward the end of the stroke for a soft finish with minimal impact.
Corrosion-resistant coatings: part coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
Easy installation: no special tools required; for best results, replace in pairs.

Over time a gas lift support loses charge and can no longer hold the hood up or open smoothly. If a worn support is why your hood drifts down or slams, this replaces it. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application and engine details.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicle does this hood lift support fit?

It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2014-2020 Acura RLX. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the full application details for your vehicle.

How long is this lift support?

The manufacturer lists it at 16.69 inches. Compare it to your original support to confirm the match before installing.

Should I replace both hood supports at once?

For best results, Stabilus recommends replacing them in pairs so both sides open and hold the hood evenly.

What is dynamic damping?

A longitudinal velocity-manifold groove in the tube wall controls how gas flows around the piston, creating a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking and a gentle stop.

How do I know my hood support needs replacing?

Signs a gas lift support may need replacing include a hood that drifts down, won't stay up, or opens slowly. If a worn support is the cause, this unit replaces it.
