Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support P/N:3B-586261
Hold your liftgate open with steady, controlled motion using the Stabilus LIFT-O-MAT Liftgate Lift Support 3B-909641. This 23.27-inch, temperature-compensating gas-charged lift support drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2012 Ford Flex, and its dynamic speed control helps supply a smooth opening action while supporting the raised liftgate.
If your original lift support has weakened and no longer holds the liftgate up, this Stabilus unit replaces it. For best results, replace supports in pairs so both sides open and hold evenly.
