Common Problems It Can Help Solve

  • Noise or binding from a worn lift support
  • Difficulty keeping the hood open during service

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace hood lift supports in pairs to maintain balanced operation and reliable hood support. After installation, cycle the hood carefully to confirm proper alignment and smooth movement on the 1993-1997 Chevrolet Camaro.
