Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:5B-944806
Hold your hood open with smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-256213, a 14.78-inch gas-charged strut with dynamic speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2006-2010 HUMMER H3 and 2009-2010 HUMMER H3T — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level details.
Built around the Lift-O-Mat design by Stabilus, this strut uses a longitudinal groove (velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping engineered for this application. The groove profile narrows gradually toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
