Product Details

This Stabilus gas spring is engineered around the listed dimensions and attachment style to match the Nissan Pathfinder lift support application. The 3B-029445 uses plastic socket connections at both ends and a 10 mm rod end attachment diameter, making it important to verify the existing mounting points and length before ordering. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 901109) for the same application.

Fits 1987-1995 Nissan Pathfinder, N/A. If you are replacing a worn lift support on a Nissan Pathfinder, this part number is a direct reference point for matching the correct gas spring geometry and force output.

Common Replacement Reasons

• Rear hatch or liftgate no longer stays open
• Support feels weak or drops under load
• Original gas spring has lost pressure over time
• Uneven or inconsistent opening effort
• Replacement needed after seal or rod wear

Installation Notes

Compare the compressed length, extended length, force rating, and socket-style ends against the removed unit before installation. Confirm that the mounting points on the Nissan Pathfinder match the plastic socket connection style and that the support is oriented correctly during installation. Avoid forcing the lift support into position if the lengths or end fittings do not align.

Quality Assurance

Stabilus is a recognized OE supplier of gas springs and lift supports, and this part is built to the listed dimensional and force specifications for the stated Nissan Pathfinder applications. Part number 3B-029445 should be matched to the vehicle fitment and attachment style before installation.
