Detailed Description
This Stabilus gas spring, part number 4B-222071, is specified for 1978-1981 Nissan 510 applications. The 255 N force rating and matched compressed and extended lengths help support the original lift or hold-open function where the factory strut was used. The metal blade attachment style on both ends supports a direct replacement setup for Nissan 510 hatch, panel, or access-panel applications that use this configuration.
For buyers searching for a Nissan 510 lift support, hatch strut, or OE replacement gas spring, 4B-222071 provides the key dimensions needed for fitment verification before ordering. This part cross-references Dorman - First Stop C95034 for the same application.
What It Helps Solve
- Weak or failing lift support that no longer holds a panel open
- Slow or uneven opening of a rear hatch or access panel
- Loss of support force from an aging gas strut
- Replacement needs for a 1978-1981 Nissan 510 gas spring
- Fitment matching for a metal blade-to-metal blade strut layout
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the compressed length, extended length, rod diameter, tube diameter, and end attachment style against the original part before installation. Confirm that the vehicle uses metal blade connections and compare the mounting points on the 1978-1981 Nissan 510 to ensure proper alignment. If the original support has lost pressure, replace it with the correct force rating to restore normal operation.
