Product Details

Stabilus 3A-707255 is a POWERISE replacement for application-specific power liftgate systems on the Ford Explorer. It is engineered as an electro-mechanical unit with integrated safety sensing to help prevent improper operation, and it is built to match the fit and function expected in factory-style power liftgate assemblies. This part number, 3A-707255, also cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts 172286 for the same application.

Common Replacement Symptoms

  • Liftgate opens or closes slowly
  • Power liftgate stops before reaching full travel
  • Liftgate will not hold an intermediate opening height
  • Unusual operation from the power liftgate support assembly
  • Loss of automatic opening or closing function

Installation Notes

Verify connector shape, end type, and length specifications before installation. This unit uses ball socket ends and a square adapter connector, so matching the original configuration is important for proper operation. Follow the included installation instructions and confirm power liftgate calibration or initialization procedures required by the vehicle after replacement.

Quality Assurance

POWERISE by Stabilus is built to the same design standards and durability expectations used for factory-style power liftgate systems. The integrated sensor system adds an extra layer of operational safety during use.
