Hood Lift Support
A hood lift support, commonly referred to as a lift support or hood support, is a crucial component that assists in holding up the hood of a vehicle. It's responsible for counterbalancing the weight of the hood and keeping it securely in the open position while you perform maintenance or access the engine compartment. This essential part is typically comprised of a gas-charged strut that contains compressed gas and a piston. As the hood is raised, the gas pressure within the strut increases, providing the necessary force to hold the hood up without any manual support.

Selecting the correct hood lift support is essential to ensure both safety and convenience. When considering a replacement or upgrade, it's important to know the make, model, and year of your vehicle. This information is crucial for identifying the compatible lift support that matches your hood's weight and design. Additionally, check whether your vehicle requires one or two lift supports for optimal performance. Improperly matched lift supports can result in the hood falling unexpectedly or not staying open, leading to safety hazards and inconvenience.
