Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the compressed length, extended length, force rating, and socket-style end connections before installation. Compare the original support to Stabilus 4B-299507 to confirm rod diameter, tube diameter, and attachment style match the vehicle. Inspect mounting points and retaining clips for wear before installing the new gas strut.
