Product Information
Full details
The Stabilus LIFT-O-MAT gas spring is designed for vehicle owners needing a reliable replacement for failing or worn-out tailgate struts. This high-quality component ensures smooth, controlled opening and closing of your boot or cargo area, restoring factory-level performance to your vehicle. While it is built to exact OEM specifications, users must ensure they match the part number and vehicle specifications precisely, as incorrect force ratings can cause safety issues or improper tailgate alignment.

FAQs
Should I replace only one strut if only one is failing?
It is highly recommended to replace gas struts in pairs. This ensures even force distribution and prevents the new strut from wearing out prematurely.
Is special equipment required to install this strut?
No special equipment is required, though a small flat-head screwdriver is often needed to release the retaining clips.
What does the 430 N rating mean?
430 N refers to the Newton force of the gas spring. This is the amount of pressure the strut exerts to lift the tailgate weight.
Can I install this on a different vehicle if the length is similar?
No. You must follow the manufacturer's compatibility list. Even if the length is similar, the force rating and mounting ends are specific to the vehicle's design.
Does the rod end go up or down?
Generally, gas struts should be installed with the piston rod (the thin end) pointing downward to keep the internal seals lubricated.
Troubleshooting
Tailgate feels heavy or won't stay open
Check if the gas strut has lost its charge or is leaking oil. If the strut fails to hold the weight, it must be replaced.
Difficulty snapping the strut onto the ball stud
Ensure the ball stud is clean and free of debris. Verify the mounting orientation matches the original strut.
Tailgate binds or creates noise during operation
Check that the mounting brackets are aligned correctly and that the strut is not rubbing against any plastic trim pieces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, always work with a partner to hold the tailgate in the fully open position, as removing the old strut will cause the door to lose its support. Use a flat-head screwdriver to gently release the retaining clips on the existing strut ends. Snap the new Stabilus strut into place, ensuring the clips are secure. Compatibility covers various Suzuki Vitara models; always cross-reference OEM part numbers 8185054P01, 8185086R00, 8186054P01, and 8186086R00. For care, avoid applying lubricants or cleaning agents to the polished piston rod, as these can damage the internal seals and lead to premature failure.
