The custom designed gas struts are selected for their stroke and force profile to provide the perfect balance of high lift capability and good tactile feel for both opening and closing. The mounting brackets are coated in a beautiful high-gloss black powder coat finish, for OEM look and ultimate durability. We use heavy duty multi-grip rivets, which grip perfectly even in oversized holes. Our kits even include a positive drill bit stopper, which makes for safer drilling than using electrical tape as in other kits. Lose the Hood Prop RodEliminating the prop rod gives you an engine compartment free and clear of obstacles, with easier access to all your projects. No More Two-Handed Hood Opening or Closing The struts in this kit have been selected to lift the hood smoothly to its fully open position, and to latch securely when closing, all with an easy one handed operation. Selectable Height of Open HoodA unique feature of this kit is the ability to choose the open hood height, ranging from the stock prop-rod height up to 8" higher, for unparalleled lighting and access to the engine bay. Installation The kit comes with complete, detailed, color-illustrated step by step installation instructions. The entire installation typically takes less than 30 minutes.Basic hand tools, a power drill, a rivet gun, a tape measure, a permanent marker, drill bits, and masking tape are all you need to install this kit! Vehicle Compatibility This kit was designed and tested to work with all stock '16-'23 Tacomas. Manual transmission models with separate clutch fluid reservoir (not shared with brake master cylinder) will require 1/2" spacers to provide clearance for the clutch reservoir (spacer kits are available for purchase). If you’ve added components or wiring along the inside of the fenders, they may need to be relocated to accommodate the kit. Contact us if you have any questions. We also have kits available for '96-'02 4Runners, '95-'00 Tacomas, '01-'04 Tacomas, and '05-'15 Tacomas. Look for these listings on Ebay, or contact us for additional info.
