Open and hold your liftgate with smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Lift-O-Mat Liftgate Lift Support 3B-029970. This 23.35-inch gas-charged lift support drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2007 Chevrolet Equinox and 2006-2007 Pontiac Torrent — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full application and engine list. Its dynamic damping speed control uses a longitudinal velocity-manifold groove pressed into the tube wall, letting gas flow around the piston so the gate raises at a tuned speed and settles with a gentle, controlled stop instead of bouncing or jerking.

  • Dynamic damping speed control: creates a fluid opening motion with no bouncing or jerking during cycling.
  • Corrosion-resistant coatings: part coatings tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
  • Based on the OE design: engineered for proper fit, form, and function.
  • Easy installation: installs with no special tools required.

Lift supports wear as a set, so for best results replace them in pairs for even, balanced hold. Signs this part may need replacing include a liftgate that drifts down, won't stay up, or opens slowly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicles does the Stabilus 3B-029970 lift support fit?

It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2005-2007 Chevrolet Equinox and 2006-2007 Pontiac Torrent. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact application for your vehicle.

How long is this lift support?

The manufacturer lists this Stabilus Lift-O-Mat lift support at 23.35 inches. Confirm the size matches your original before ordering.

What does dynamic damping speed control do?

A groove pressed into the tube wall lets gas flow around the piston at a tuned rate, giving a fluid opening motion and a gentle, controlled stop with no bouncing or jerking.

Should I replace both lift supports at once?

For best results Stabilus recommends replacing them in pairs, so both sides provide even, balanced support and consistent hold.

How can I tell if my lift support has failed?

Common signs include a liftgate that drifts down, won't stay open, or raises slowly. If a worn lift support is the cause, this replaces it.
