Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:5B-944806
Raise and hold your hood with a smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-967989, a 12.13-inch gas-charged lift support with dynamic speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2020 Kia Sorento (see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment), holding the hood open and helping ease it through its opening and closing cycle.
Signs a lift support may need replacing include a hood that drifts down, won't stay up, or feels weak and jerky when raised. For best results, replace in pairs.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What vehicle does this hood lift support fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2020 Kia Sorento. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact application for your vehicle.
How long is this lift support?
Stabilus lists this hood lift support at 12.13 inches. It is a gas-charged unit with dynamic speed control.
Should I replace both lift supports at once?
Stabilus recommends replacing in pairs for best results, since both supports typically wear at a similar rate for balanced, consistent hood operation.
What is Lift-O-Mat dynamic damping?
It uses a groove (velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with damping tuned for this application, and the groove narrows near the end of the stroke for a gentle stop.
What are signs my hood lift support is failing?
Common signs include a hood that drifts down, won't stay open, or feels weak or jerky when raised. If a worn lift support is the cause, this unit replaces it.
