Keep tailgate motion smooth and controlled with the Stabilus Tailgate Damper 6B-1401SW, an 8.86-inch hydraulic damper with progressive load dampening. It drops in as a direct replacement for the 1995-2005 Chevrolet Blazer, 1995-2005 GMC Jimmy, and 1996-2001 Oldsmobile Bravada — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. Dampers lose their damping ability over time, leading to difficult opening and closing and uncontrolled motion; if a worn damper is the cause, this unit is designed to restore that controlled action.
- Patented Labyrinth Piston: provides clog-free progressive dampening to the application.
- Controlled motion: helps eliminate uncontrolled opening motion for smooth, consistent operation.
- Corrosion resistance: part coatings tested to automotive standards for corrosion resistance.
- OE-based design: built to OE standards for proper fit, form, and function, and easy to install with no special tools.
For best results, replace in pairs so both sides deliver even, balanced support.
