Open and close your Ford's power liftgate with confidence using the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 3A-408489, a POWERISE spindle-driven powered lift support for the left (L) side. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2016-2019 Ford Explorer and 2016-2019 Ford Police Interceptor Utility — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full engine list.
POWERISE by Stabilus is engineered with the same quality, design standards, and durability as factory-installed power liftgate systems, with an integrated sensor system that helps guard against improper operation and lets you stop at intermediate opening heights. For best results, replace the left and right supports in pairs so both sides operate evenly.
