Hold your Jeep's rear hatch open with steady, controlled motion using the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 4B-130257, a gas-charged strut with dynamic speed control. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2007-2017 Jeep Compass — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment on your specific model.
This is a Lift-O-Mat unit by Stabilus, built around a longitudinal groove (a velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall that lets gas flow around the piston with extension speed and damping engineered for this application. The groove narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
Lift supports work as a pair, so for best results Stabilus recommends replacing both sides together for balanced, even support.
