Detailed Description

Stabilus 6B-027088 is an OE-style gas spring specified for BMW Z3 fitments, including the 1999 BMW Z3 and 2000-2002 BMW Z3 Roadster and M Roadster. The measured body dimensions and plastic socket connections support direct replacement planning when matching the original lift support geometry. This part cross-references BMW 51 24 8 410 755 and URO 51248410755 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Weak or failing lift support that no longer holds position
  • Slow or uneven opening of a supported panel or hatch
  • Loss of controlled motion during lift or close cycles
  • Noise or instability caused by a worn gas spring
  • Fitment issues when replacing an original BMW Z3 support with the correct dimensions

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify compressed length, extended length, force rating, and socket-style end fittings against the original part before installation. Confirm the vehicle application by model year and body style: Fits 1999 BMW Z3, N/A; Fits 2000-2002 BMW Z3, N/A, Roadster and M Roadster. For best results, compare the original mounting points and attachment diameters to the replacement gas spring before removal.
