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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Problems This Part Addresses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear hatch or liftgate drops instead of staying open\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeak or slow hatch lift action\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUneven or inconsistent opening effort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorn gas pressure in the original support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoisy or loose rear lift support operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation Notes and Tips\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eVerify 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.
