• Loss of support force from a worn gas spring
• Excessive effort needed to raise the supported panel
• Original support has weakened over time

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the compressed length, extended length, rod diameter, and socket style against the original support before installation. Confirm the mounting points on the Ford Fiesta match the plastic socket connection and 10 mm end attachment diameter. Replace the support with the panel fully secured so it does not drop during service. For best results, compare the removed unit to Stabilus 4B-777230 before final installation.
