Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support P/N:4B-9247ZZ
Hold your hatch open smoothly and keep it from dropping with the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 4B-289461, a gas-charged strut with dynamic speed control. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2015-2024 MINI Cooper — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific coverage — and measures 19.02 inches. Built on Stabilus' Lift-O-Mat design, it uses a longitudinal groove (velocity manifold) pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping engineered for this application, tapering toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.

What vehicles does the 4B-289461 lift support fit?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2015-2024 MINI Cooper. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the exact fit for your vehicle.

A longitudinal groove pressed into the tube wall lets gas flow around the piston, controlling extension speed. The groove narrows toward the end of the stroke for a gentle, controlled stop.
