Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support P/N:4B-9901VT
Hold your Mercedes liftgate open smoothly with the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 4B-522459, a 19.94-inch gas-charged strut with dynamic speed control. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2013-2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK250, 2009 Mercedes-Benz GLK280, 2010-2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK300 and 2009-2015 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine specifics.
This is Stabilus' Lift-O-Mat design, which uses a longitudinal velocity-manifold groove pressed into the tube wall so gas flows around the piston with extension speed and damping tuned for this application.
Signs your original lift supports may need replacing include a liftgate that drops, drifts down, or won't stay up on its own. For balanced operation, replace in pairs.

What does this lift support do?
It's a gas-charged strut that supports the liftgate as it opens and holds it up. Its dynamic damping controls extension speed for a fluid opening motion without bouncing or jerking.

The Stabilus 4B-522459 measures 19.94 inches. It uses the Lift-O-Mat dynamic damping design based on the OE part's fit, form and function.
Should I replace both lift supports at once?
For best results Stabilus recommends replacing them in pairs, which helps keep the liftgate's operation balanced and even.
What are the signs it needs replacing?
A liftgate that slowly drifts down, drops, or won't stay open on its own are common signs the lift supports may need replacing. Diagnose the cause before ordering.
