Struts are easily replaced,its not like you will open the hood everyday
If they last 100K miles or so thats like $1 per 1000 miles. I can live with that. I suspect they are a quality product.

Redline Tuning has a video of the installation! :like:

That’s a good looking Ranger ! ? A funny behind the scenes backstory. I was holding the hood up while they videoed this. All because the prop rod was in the way of the cameras and hood was too low to get enough light to shoot ? So it was quite a workout for me and should offset any muscle loss in the future.

I watched the video 23 times for the music (and to feel my pants tighten as the hood goes up on its own).

I think installing this might be easier than picking up the phone to call your mechanic.

That's a fantastic video! And it makes me want to order a second pair! I do like that it opens more than the prop rod. Now why that matters for a 5 and a half foot tall guy that doesn't plan on doing his own maintenance, I don't know but I must have this. =)

And the installation couldn't be easier, may be easier than the ignition bezel! =p

Well if I ever did need to do that job I would exclaim how big a job it was going to be. At least a six pack type of job! I’m saving a bundle doing by myself…
