Hood props

NavySeabee87 · July 6th, 2008, 02:43 AM

So i want to get the Quick Lfit kit, but there is either the elite, or the plus. anyone know the difference? I know cdc makes them but there out of stock for now

MRT Hood Strut Kit

Thats the one I was lookin at. I have not heard anything bad or good about it. However installation seems very simple and most products from StangMods are great. Plus, who can beat $110.

Cheers

This looks like a sweet mod. I def want to do them. Looks great and is practical when working in the engine area

NavySeabee87 · July 8th, 2008, 11:24 PM

no gay ass prop rod is in the way too. it gets rid of the little stick in front of your engine. i think it will look good when i get to install it

There was one gas strut kit that raised your hood way higher than the others, I found it once and couldn't find it again, I think that'd be the best one, because sometimes you gotta move the hood back a bit to maneuver parts out, I remember having to push the hood back to get the damn rear passenger side plug out

what plug was it?

Garhfer · July 8th, 2008, 11:40 PM

The back spark plug on the passenger side, my ratchet kept hitting the hood so I had to have somebody hold it back while I got it out, *shrugs* maybe it was my extension was too long but I just remember that...

NavySeabee87 · July 8th, 2008, 11:59 PM

yea we got my sparks out fine. it was the extension lol.

Zatrekaz · July 10th, 2008, 06:49 AM

that has to be one long ass extension Lol... dont see how it could be going from your spark plug all the way to the hood. Then again my depth perception may be off shurg

hey, so if you end up gettin those hood props before i come home, tell me how they look and work, and if you dont get them, remind me in three months to tell u

ZOOTOXIN · July 12th, 2008, 01:18 AM

has anyone seen a kit that has the Hood hinged in front and raises like a vett? I would love to see a pick perhaps its only done custom or perhaps impossible, just curious. Guess it would rise up and slide forward before raising to clear front bumper. horrible pic attached, just didnt want to waste time making it look real and fit right but you get the idea.
