Temperature-Controlled Liftgate Support

Stabilus 4B-260093 is a gas liftgate lift support engineered for vehicles that use a temperature compensating valve system. It delivers OE-equivalent motion control by adjusting gas force as temperatures change, helping the liftgate open more securely in cold weather and close more smoothly in warmer conditions.

Compatible With 2017-2021 Chevrolet Bolt EV applications that require a lift support with a temperature compensating valve for increased hold force in cold weather. This Stabilus lift support is built for consistent operation across seasonal temperature swings.

Key Features

  • Stabilus LIFT-O-MAT TCV design for temperature-sensitive force adjustment
  • OE-equivalent performance for OE temperature compensation systems
  • Gas-charged lift support with ball socket ends
  • Extended length: 18.29 in. (464.5 mm)
  • Compressed length: 13.41 in. (340.5 mm)
  • Stroke length: 4.88 in. (124 mm)
  • Maximum force: 178 lb (790 N)
  • End materials: nylon
  • Cylinder outside diameter: 0.866 in. (22 mm)

Detailed Description

Stabilus 4B-260093 is built for the Chevrolet Bolt EV liftgate application that relies on temperature compensation to maintain proper opening and closing effort. The internal temperature-sensitive valve increases force in cold conditions and reduces force in warmer conditions, helping preserve smooth liftgate operation across a wide range of ambient temperatures. For drivers and technicians replacing an OE TCV unit, this part number 4B-260093 provides a direct-fit gas support solution with the dimensions and force rating needed for the application.

This part cross-references Bosch 7401 for the same application.

What It Helps Solve

  • Weak liftgate opening force in cold weather
  • Liftgate that closes too hard when temperatures rise
  • Inconsistent liftgate hold position across seasons
  • Loss of smooth, controlled liftgate motion
  • Replacement needs for a worn OE temperature compensating support

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify ball socket mounting points and compare compressed length, extended length, and stroke before installation. Replace the support only on the vehicle application listed for this part number 4B-260093, and confirm the liftgate operates smoothly after installation. Mounting hardware is not included.

Quality Assurance

Stabilus manufactures this LIFT-O-MAT TCV lift support to OE-level specifications for temperature-compensated liftgate systems. It is engineered for durable gas spring performance and consistent force control in the 2017-2021 Chevrolet Bolt EV application.
