Hold your hood up smoothly and steadily with the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-017120, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic speed control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee — see the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level details. This support measures 11.30 inches and uses Stabilus's Lift-O-Mat dynamic damping, which routes gas around the piston through a velocity manifold groove pressed into the tube wall for a fluid, controlled motion.

  • Dynamic damping speed control: creates 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 smooth stop with minimal impact.
  • Corrosion-tested coatings: part coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
  • Based on the OE design: engineered for proper fit, form, and function, and easy to install with no special tools.

Worn lift supports that no longer hold the hood up, drift down, or feel weak are signs this part may need replacing. For best results, replace in pairs so both sides support the hood evenly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicle does the 5B-017120 fit?

It is a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your specific vehicle.

How long is this lift support?

This Stabilus lift support measures 11.30 inches, based on the OE design for proper fit, form, and function.

What is dynamic damping?

Dynamic damping uses a groove pressed into the tube wall to route gas around the piston, creating a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking and a gentle stop at the end of the stroke.

Should I replace both lift supports at once?

For best results, replace them in pairs so both sides support the hood evenly and open with matched motion.

How do I know when a hood lift support needs replacing?

Signs include a hood that no longer stays up, drifts down on its own, or feels weak when raised. If a worn lift support is the cause, this replaces it.
