The cylinder outside diameter measures 15.0 mm, while the inner shaft diameter is 6.0 mm. This hood lift support uses ball socket nylon ends sized at 10mm on both ends, ensuring a secure and precise fit to the hood and vehicle frame. With a stroke length of 6.0 inches, it allows for smooth hood lifting and lowering. The maximum force capacity of 55.0 lbs supports the hood reliably without sudden drops or instability. The absence of an internal rebound spring means the support operates with consistent pressure throughout its stroke. Rubber and Teflon materials are incorporated to reduce friction and wear, enhancing the lifespan of the lift support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatible Vehicles and Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis hood lift support is specifically designed for use with Land Rover vehicles, including the LR3, LR4, and Range Rover Sport models.
