Really expected Ford to add hood struts when they brought the ‘Improved Jeep’ Bronco 6G. Same for the missing gas struts on the soft top version. First things that I added to my ride.

Just installed these a few days ago. Sure is nice to have the extra 8 inches and for the price and a lifetime warranty it’s a good value. I left the rod as a back up but these work nicely.

I used my points and got mine through Ford Performance. The struts and all the hardware look identical. I'm guessing one makes them for the other.

I’ve read a lot about many of the hood strut options flexing the weak aluminum at the mount point on the hood. Steeda makes one that has much larger reinforced brackets to protect the aluminum. Anyone see the hood bending and flexing at the attachment point?

I’ve had/noticed zero problems with the redline tuning ones. I chose these over other options that mounted in a way it blocked access from the side of the engine bay.

I haven't installed them on my Bronco yet, but I installed them on my Subaru back in 2013. It also has an aluminum hood. No bending.

Have had them on a little over a year and no issues so far.
