Apparently the oem struts have left the building just as I’m finally ready to sell my ranger. Want to get some struts on there for cheap.

Redline I believe makes hood struts for most vehicles. I added them recently to my old TACO. Great products.

Redlines off Amazon...
That's one of the 1st things I swapped out when I bought the truck. The hood prop sucked. The redlines also lift the hood @ 6 inches higher.

Forget the hood dampers...get your self a genuine DZEE tailgate damper instead!

Nah. The Roush Tailgate Damper adds 17hp and 32ft/lbs. Takes 0.22 seconds off your ¼ mile too.

Any mice where you are Tim? Maybe it’s just the picture, but that looks to be chewed right through.
Ask me how I know…

Thanks Steve, I’m hoping it’s just a grainy photo that doesn’t show the wires very well against his brake fluid reservoir.
