The ball socket ends, including a 10mm nylon socket on one end and a 16mm nylon angled socket at 16 degrees on the other, allow for easy installation and secure attachment points. The black steel cylinder resists corrosion, extending the service life of the part.

Installation Notes and Tips
When installing the StrongArm 6020 hood lift support on a Hyundai Sonata, ensure the hood is securely propped open before removal of the old support. The ball socket ends should snap firmly into place on the hood and frame mounting points. Verify the orientation of the angled 16-degree socket for proper alignment.
