Hold your hood open with steady, controlled motion using the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-3369LT, a 9.80-inch hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1995-2001 Ford Explorer, 1995-2001 Mercury Explorer, and 1997-2001 Mercury Mountaineer — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application details.
The Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus pairs an innovative oil-channeling system with the patented labyrinth piston design, finely tuned for this application with customized oil viscosities and piston configuration to provide smooth, controlled damping. A worn or gas-depleted support that drops, sags, or won't hold the hood up is a sign this part may need replacing. For best results, replace lift supports in pairs.
