Product Description

Stabilus 5B-058834 is a gas-charged lift support specified by its compressed and extended lengths, rod and tube diameters, and plastic socket end connections. Those dimensions matter for Ford Focus hatch and spoiler-equipped rear lift applications because the support must match the mounting points and travel length to operate correctly. If you are replacing a worn lift support on a Ford Focus, this Stabilus 5B-058834 unit provides the correct OE-style geometry for the listed model years.

Use this part number when searching for a Ford Focus liftgate support, rear hatch strut, or gas spring replacement. The 420 N force rating is the key specification for maintaining lift assistance and controlled movement on the rear opening.

Common Problems This Part Addresses

• Rear hatch or liftgate drops instead of staying open
• Weak or slow hatch lift action
• Uneven or inconsistent opening effort
• Worn gas pressure in the original support
• Noisy or loose rear lift support operation

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle configuration before ordering: 2005-2011 Ford Focus without rear spoiler uses this application, while 2001-2004 Ford Focus with spoiler uses the matching application listed above. Compare the compressed length, extended length, and 10 mm end attachment diameter to the original support before installation. Replace only with the correct lift support for the hatch configuration to ensure proper alignment and operation.
