Hood Struts

Easy to install and works well on my 2022 Tacoma 4X4. Took me about an hour to install by myself but look and works great.

Awesome I really recommend this

So much better when you have a 3inch lift on your Tacoma and your not very tall like 6ft people but 5ft it’s kind of hard but with the hood struts so much better I can lift the hood with one hand as I got something else in my other hand like tools, jumper cables, oil, or maybe a beer , or whatever. I just don’t know why I didn’t do this before I got my Tacoma I appreciate it thank y’all

I recommend this product

Absolute game changer!!!!!

First off it really name feel good the the strut kit was made in the USA and you can definitely feel the quality in the parts and the struts! First off the directions from the video were spot on thank you!! My only hiccup was on me. I was so excited starting the second bracket I put the rivet on the wrong side of the bracket so be careful not to get too excited. LOL I WOULD LIKE TO PERSONALLY THANK WHOEVER THOUGHT AHEAD ABOUT PUTTING AN EXTRA RIVET IN THE KIT IS AN ABSOLUTE GENIUS. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR SAVING ME. OK the game changer I am a big guy, but damn the Tacoma hood weighs a ton. With that said after installing the struts, the hood is an absolute dream to open just lift a little bit and it just glides open. The kit is absolutely freaking amazing. A true 10 out of 10 for real I highly recommend definitely one of the top five things I’ve added to my Tacoma And a special thanks to Ben for all his help thank you Sir!!!

Awesome struts should of bought sooner

Install was very simple only took 30 min. With 2 people. Instructions where very helpful, pictures were extremely helpful. There was minor cutting involved with a Dremel but very minimal. Wish I could show pictures of where we had to cut.
