Raise your hood smoothly and hold it steady with the Stabilus Hood Lift Support 5B-9917VK, a gas-charged Lift-O-Mat strut with dynamic damping speed control and an internal compression spring that helps release the hood from the latch. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2015 Nissan Armada, 2004 Nissan Pathfinder, 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada, and 2004-2015 Nissan Titan — see the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment. A worn support that drops the hood, opens slowly, or won't hold up is a sign it may need replacing.
- Dynamic damping speed control: creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking, and gradually narrows the internal groove near the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
- Internal compression spring: compresses in the closed position to give an added boost during initial opening, helping lift the hood off the latch mechanism.
- Corrosion-resistant coatings: part coatings tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
- Based on the OE design to help ensure proper fit, form, and function; easy to install with no special tools.
For best results, replace in pairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What vehicles does the 5B-9917VK hood lift support fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2015 Nissan Armada, 2004 Nissan Pathfinder, 2004 Nissan Pathfinder Armada, and 2004-2015 Nissan Titan. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine-level fitment.
What does the internal compression spring do?
It compresses while the hood is closed and gives an added boost during initial opening, helping lift the hood off the latch mechanism when released.
How does dynamic damping speed control work?
Gas flows around the piston through a groove pressed into the tube wall, creating a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking and a gentle, controlled stop near the end of the stroke.
Should I replace both hood supports at once?
For best results, replace them in pairs so both sides open and hold the hood evenly.
Do I need special tools to install it?
No. It's based on the OE design for proper fit, form, and function, and it's easy to install with no special tools.
