Product Details

The Stabilus 2B-304287 gas strut is specified for Ford Escape rear liftgate service on 2018-2019 vehicles with the right-side application and without the power liftgate option. Its measured compressed and extended lengths, 10 mm rod diameter, 22 mm tube diameter, and 640 N force rating help ensure the liftgate opens and supports as intended for the listed application. This part number, 2B-304287, also cross-references Baldwin B7379 and Gates 7379 for the same application.

Common Issues It Can Address

  • Liftgate that drops instead of staying open
  • Rear hatch that feels heavy or difficult to raise
  • Uneven or weak lift support on the right side
  • Loss of holding force in the rear liftgate strut
  • Slow or inconsistent liftgate movement

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle is a 2018-2019 Ford Escape with the right-side rear liftgate application and no power liftgate before ordering. Compare the original strut’s compressed length, extended length, and socket-style end fittings to confirm match-up. Support the liftgate securely during replacement and transfer any reusable mounting points from the original setup if required by the vehicle.
