Detailed Description

Stabilus 4B-140534 is built for rear liftgate support where consistent opening force and controlled closing matter. The gas spring dimensions, socket-style end connections, and 100 lb force rating align with the needs of the 2007-2012 Dodge Caliber, N/A, Exc.Articulating Liftgate Speakers. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. If you are replacing a worn hatch strut on a Dodge Caliber, this Stabilus 4B-140534 offers the correct length and attachment style for the listed vehicle application.

Common Replacement Reasons

  • Liftgate drops too quickly when opened
  • Rear hatch will not stay raised
  • Weak or uneven opening support
  • Noise or binding during liftgate movement
  • Loss of gas pressure in the original strut

Installation Notes

Verify the vehicle application before installation, especially the note for Exc.Articulating Liftgate Speakers. Match the compressed length, extended length, and socket attachment style to the original unit before removal. Support the liftgate securely during service and confirm smooth operation after installation.

Quality Assurance

Stabilus is a recognized OE supplier of gas springs and lift supports, and this part is built to match the listed fitment and dimensional requirements for the Dodge Caliber application.
