Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:5B-025469
Hold your hood up smoothly and keep it there with the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-269632, a gas-charged lift support with dynamic speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2018-2024 Ford Expedition and 2018-2024 Lincoln Navigator — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application details. This unit measures 15.02 inches and uses Stabilus Lift-O-Mat technology, in which a longitudinal groove (a velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall lets gas flow around the piston for controlled extension and damping tuned to this application.
For best results, replace in pairs so both supports hold and cycle evenly.

What does this hood lift support do?
It is a gas-charged lift support that raises and holds the hood open, using dynamic damping speed control for a smooth, fluid opening motion without bouncing or jerking.
Should I replace both lift supports at the same time?
For best results, Stabilus recommends replacing them in pairs so both supports hold the hood and cycle evenly.
What is Lift-O-Mat dynamic damping?
A longitudinal groove pressed into the tube wall lets gas flow around the piston with extension speed and damping engineered for this application, and it narrows near the end of the stroke for a gentle stop.
Are special tools needed to install it?
No. It is based on the OE design for proper fit, form, and function, and installs without special tools. Consult your vehicle service information for the correct procedure.
