“For starters the River gun I opted for in the kit broke apart on the first rivet. I luckily found the one I bout a few years back. The actual lifts themselves seemed to be of poor quality. I shut the hood and after opening it the graphite looking covers slid to the bottom of the lifts. I had to slide them back over. Every time I shut the hood after the rubber piece at the bottom kept sliding to the bottom of the lift. I eventually used electrical tape to secure the rubber end piece to the tube that slide down.”
“Should've installed these sooner. What a difference from manual to assisted hood opening. No more heavy lifting.
It was a quick and easy install. Just follow the included install manual and you'll be all set in no time.
The struts itself is sturdy and lifts the heavy hood no problem.
Kudos to Tacomabeast for fast shipping as well.”
“Just installed on my 2018 TRD OffRoad, went on easily, instructions are thorough with lots of pictures. Can’t believe Toyota didn’t do this from the factory. Works great, hood opens higher than with the old hood prop. Recommend highly.”
