Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:5B-025469
$23.99

Keep your hood propped open with steady, controlled motion using the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-025469, a hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support that measures 13.07 inches. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2010 Ford Explorer and the 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine breakdown. If the original strut has lost its charge and lets the hood drift down, this Lift-O-Mat unit replaces it.

  • Patented Labyrinth Piston: delivers clog-free, smooth operation while opening and closing.
  • Clog-free design: helps prevent binding caused by contamination.
  • Corrosion resistance: part coatings tested to automotive standards.
  • Easy installation: no special tools required, and it's based on the OE design for proper fit, form, and function.

Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus pairs an oil-channeling system with the labyrinth piston and a precision seal-guide system, with oil viscosities and piston configurations tuned for this application to provide smooth, controlled damping. For best results, replace lift supports in pairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this hood lift support do?

It's a gas-charged, hydraulically dampened strut that helps raise and hold the hood open with smooth, controlled motion. If the original has weakened, this replaces it.

Which vehicles does the 5B-025469 fit?

It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2010 Ford Explorer and the 2007-2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm your engine and configuration.

Should I replace both lift supports at once?

For best results, Stabilus recommends replacing lift supports in pairs so both sides provide even, balanced support when the hood is raised.

How is the smooth motion achieved?

The patented Labyrinth Piston works with an oil-channeling system and precision seal-guide, using application-tuned oil viscosity and piston configuration to deliver controlled damping.

Are special tools needed to install it?

No. This lift support is easy to install and requires no special tools. Consult the vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
