Keep your rear liftgate rising smoothly and holding steady with the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 3B-531280, a 24.37-inch hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1987-1992 Ford Aerostar (see the Buyer's Guide tab for full application details).

  • Patented Labyrinth Piston: Stabilus's Lift-O-Mat labyrinth piston design channels oil for clog-free, smooth motion through the full open-and-close cycle.
  • Clog-free operation: The design helps prevent binding caused by contamination.
  • Corrosion-resistant coatings: Part coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
  • Based on the OE design: Engineered to the original design for proper fit, form, and function, and easy to install with no special tools.

Lift-O-Mat by Stabilus pairs an innovative oil-channeling system with a precision seal-guide system, tuning oil viscosity and piston configuration for this application to deliver controlled, refined damping. Signs a lift support may need replacing include a liftgate that drifts down, feels slow, or no longer holds itself up. For best results, Stabilus recommends replacing both supports in pairs for balanced, even operation.
