Stabilus Hood Lift Support P/N:6B-0596PK
Hold your hood open steadily while you work with the Stabilus hood lift support, part number 6B-028876. This 6.38-inch lift support is hydraulically dampened and gas charged, and it is a direct-fit replacement for the 1984-1988 Chevrolet Corvette. It is based on the OE design for proper fit, form and function. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine details.
This support belongs to Stabilus's Lift-O-Mat line. Its hydraulic damping combines an oil channeling system with the labyrinth piston. Each unit is tuned for its application with customized oil viscosities and piston configurations to give controlled motion. Stabilus builds it with high-quality materials and a precision seal-guide system for durability and reliable operation.
Signs that a hood lift support may need replacing include a hood that won't stay up on its own, drifts down, or feels heavy to lift. Stabilus recommends replacing lift supports in pairs for best results.
