Raise and hold the tailgate with a smooth, controlled motion using the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 4B-028707, a gas-charged Lift-O-Mat strut with dynamic damping speed control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2003 Ford Focus, measures 18.31 inches, and requires no special tools to fit. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment details.
If a worn lift support can no longer hold the liftgate up or lets it drop or slam, this Lift-O-Mat unit helps restore controlled support. For best results, replace lift supports in pairs so both sides raise and hold evenly.
