Constructed from high‑grade steel with a durable painted finish, these supports resist corrosion and wear even in harsh climates. Each unit measures 25 x 2 x 1 inches and weighs just 8.8 ounces, making them lightweight yet robust enough to handle repeated lifting cycles. Engineered as an exact replacement for the original equipment, the SG359011 model integrates seamlessly with factory mounting points, eliminating the need for modifications or additional hardware. The product is supplied in pairs, providing a complete solution for a single vehicle, and is backed by ZF Services North America’s reputation for quality and reliability.

Usage

These lift supports are ideal for a wide range of automotive applications, from daily commuters to performance‑oriented builds. Whether you are restoring a classic sedan, upgrading a modern SUV, or simply replacing worn‑out supports on a family wagon, the SG359011 delivers consistent lift assistance. Install the supports on the designated lift points of the hood, trunk, or side windows, following the manufacturer’s torque specifications for optimal safety. The painted exterior blends with most vehicle paint schemes, reducing visual impact while providing a professional appearance.

FAQ

What vehicles are compatible with the SG359011 lift supports?

The SG359011 is a direct replacement for many OEM lift supports used in a variety of makes and models. It is commonly found in sedans, coupes, and SUVs where the original support is specified for the WINDOW location. To confirm compatibility, compare the original part number (often listed on the existing support) with SG359011, or consult your vehicle’s service manual.

How do I install the lift supports safely?

Begin by securing the vehicle on a flat surface and disconnecting the battery if electrical components are nearby. Locate the factory mounting brackets for the hood, trunk, or window lift points. Using the supplied hardware, attach the SG359011 supports to the brackets, tightening bolts to the manufacturer‑specified torque. It is recommended to use a torque wrench and to follow the step‑by‑step guide provided in the installation manual. After installation, test the lift action several times to ensure smooth operation.

Can I use these supports on a vehicle with a different paint color?

Yes. The supports feature a neutral painted finish that is designed to complement most OEM paint colors. If a perfect color match is required, the supports can be painted over with automotive‑grade paint to achieve an exact match to your vehicle’s exterior.

What is the warranty coverage for the SG359011?

Stabilus offers a limited warranty that covers manufacturing defects for a period of one year from the date of purchase. The warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation, misuse, or external factors such as accidents. For warranty claims, contact ZF Services North America with your purchase receipt and a description of the issue.

How many supports do I need for my car?

The SG359011 is sold in pairs, providing one support for each side of the lift mechanism. Most vehicles require two supports—one for the left side and one for the right side—to achieve balanced lift performance. Install both supports simultaneously for optimal results.
