Detailed Description

This Stabilus gas spring is engineered around the listed dimensions and attachment style to match the original support geometry on select Chrysler, Dodge, and Plymouth vehicles. The plastic socket ends and 10 mm attachment diameter are important for proper mounting alignment, while the 28 mm tube diameter and 678 mm extended length define the support’s operating range. For shoppers searching for a Chrysler Voyager lift support, Dodge Grand Caravan gas strut, or Plymouth Grand Voyager hatch support, the 3B-592236 is the direct part number to reference.

This part cross-references AMS Automotive 4865 and Tuff Support 610505 for the same application.

Common Uses

• Restores liftgate or hatch support that no longer stays open
• Addresses slow, weak, or uneven opening action
• Replaces a gas strut that has lost pressure over time
• Corrects panel drop or poor holding force on supported applications
• Helps eliminate binding caused by worn socket connections

Installation Notes

Verify the compressed length, extended length, rod diameter, and socket style against the original support before installation. Confirm the mounting points are clean and free of damage, and compare the existing support’s orientation and fitment notes to the vehicle application. For vehicles listed with hardware kit notes, match the application details before beginning service. The part number 3B-592236 should be used as the primary reference when ordering or replacing the support.
