Description

Hold your Probe's liftgate open and lower it under control with the Stabilus Liftgate Lift Support 4B-8511IU, a hydraulically dampened, gas-charged lift support that measures 20.00 inches. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1993-1997 Ford Probe — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level application details.

Lift-O-Mat hydraulic damping: An innovative oil-channeling system and patented labyrinth piston design deliver smooth, controlled motion tuned for this application with custom oil viscosity and piston configuration.
Patented Labyrinth Piston: Provides clog-free, smooth operation while opening and closing, and helps prevent binding due to contamination.
Corrosion-tested coatings: Part coatings are tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
Based on the OE design: Engineered to ensure proper fit, form, and function, and easy to install with no special tools.

Built with high-grade materials and a proprietary seal-guide system, this Lift-O-Mat support is designed for reliable, durable performance. Weak or worn supports that let the liftgate drift down, feel heavy to raise, or won't stay up are signs the gas struts may need replacing. Both sides typically wear at a similar rate, so for balanced operation Stabilus recommends replacing lift supports in pairs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What vehicle does the 4B-8511IU fit?

It is a direct-fit lift support for the 1993-1997 Ford Probe. Check the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the application for your specific vehicle.

What is the length of this lift support?

This lift support measures 20.00 inches, matching the OE design for proper fit, form, and function on the listed application.

Should I replace both lift supports at once?

Stabilus recommends replacing them in pairs. Both supports usually wear at a similar rate, so replacing both gives smoother, more balanced liftgate operation.

How does the Lift-O-Mat hydraulic damping work?

It uses an oil-channeling system and a patented labyrinth piston, tuned with custom oil viscosity and piston configuration, to deliver smooth, controlled opening and closing motion.

What are signs my lift supports need replacing?

A liftgate that drifts or drops on its own, feels heavy to lift, or won't stay up can indicate the gas supports have worn and may need replacement.
