Application Details
Compatible with 1997-2001 Honda CR-V rear glass service needs, this Stabilus 4B-205316 lift support is specified for the back glass position. The measured stroke and force rating help match the original lift support geometry and opening effort for the Honda CR-V rear hatch glass.

Common Replacement Reasons
- Rear glass drops instead of staying open
- Lift support no longer holds pressure
- Back glass opens with uneven or weak resistance
- Original support shows wear at the socket or ball-stud connection
- Rear glass operation feels inconsistent on a Honda CR-V
Installation Notes
Verify the compressed length, extended length, and end-connection style before installation. This Stabilus 4B-205316 uses plastic socket with ball stud attachments, so the mounting points must match the vehicle’s existing hardware. Confirm the rear glass is properly supported during replacement and compare the old support to the new unit before final installation.
