Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:5B-9369BL
Hold your hood open smoothly and steadily with the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-7586QK (also written 5B7586QK). This gas-charged lift support with dynamic speed control drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2002-2010 Mercury Mountaineer — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine specifics. Its Lift-O-Mat design uses a longitudinal groove pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping engineered for this specific application, and the groove narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
Measures 13.07 inches. Worn lift supports that no longer hold the hood up, drift closed, or feel weak are signs this part may need replacing. For best results, replace in pairs so both sides support the hood evenly.

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 consistent motion.
What does the dynamic damping do?
The dynamic damping speed control creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling, for a smooth, controlled stop at the end of the stroke.
How do I know my lift support needs replacing?
Signs it may need replacing include a hood that no longer stays up, drifts closed on its own, or feels weak when raised. Special tools are not required to install.
