Detailed Description

The Stabilus 4B-1696XR back glass lift support is an OE-style gas spring for rear hatch glass applications. With a 110 N force rating, 19.646-inch extended length, and plastic socket end connections, it is specified for select Isuzu Rodeo, Honda Passport, and Isuzu Amigo models. This part number 4B-1696XR is also cross-referenced to Tuff Support 612389 for the same application.

Use this lift support when the rear glass no longer stays open, drops unexpectedly, or feels heavy to raise. The measured compressed and extended lengths, along with the rod and tube diameters, help match the original support geometry for proper back glass movement on the listed vehicles.

What It Helps Fix

  • Rear glass that will not stay open
  • Back glass that lowers too quickly
  • Weak or worn lift support pressure
  • Hard-to-lift rear hatch glass
  • Uneven or inconsistent glass support action

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the existing support’s length, end fittings, and force rating before installation. Compare the vehicle application and mounting style to the original part to confirm proper fit on the rear glass. Inspect the mounting points and surrounding hardware for wear or damage before replacing the support.
