What It Helps Fix

• Hood that drops or will not stay open
• Weak or uneven hood lift assistance
• Slow, sticky, or inconsistent hood movement
• Gas strut wear from age and repeated use
• Leak-related loss of support pressure

Installation Notes

Verify left-side placement before installation and match the ball socket end fittings to the existing mounting points. Compare the extended length and force rating to the original support before removal. For best results, replace a worn support when hood lift effort becomes noticeably reduced.
