Redesigned for Perfection: The Ultimate Maverick Hood Strut Kit
A set of Maverick hood struts will instantly upgrade the looks and function of your engine bay. The reasoning for this aftermarket Ford Maverick part is simple—yet it's something you won't believe you've gone without. In just 30 minutes, you can add underhood dress-up to your truck with a rugged design that is built with a specific purpose: flawless operation.
The Maverick is unique, and so is our approach. While other kits on the market can cause the Maverick’s sensitive double-latch system to bind or get stuck, MRT has "retweaked" our design to eliminate these frustrations. The result is a heavy-duty, rugged design manufactured with craftsmanship and quality in mind, ensuring your hood opens reliably every single time.
MRT hood struts replace factory prop hood rods with brackets and gas cylinder struts that lift the hood and give you a clear view into the Maverick engine bay—without the hassle of a manual prop rod. Consistent with MRT's original no-drill hood struts, this kit is engineered to maintain hood alignment by using structurally secure factory attachment points for maximum strength and safety.Hood Struts That Support Your Adventures
Precision engineering is the key when you're talking about this practical engine bay upgrade. MRT Ford Maverick hood strut brackets are manufactured out of high-quality steel for the utmost durability and come standard with a quality black powder coat finish.We’ve specifically engineered the mounting geometry to work with the Maverick's dual-latch system, not against it. By utilizing structurally superior mounting points, we prevent the lateral stress that causes secondary latches to bind or release cables to pop.
Custom bracket colors are available for an additional fee. You can get a Black Carbon Fiber Effect look or send us the factory paint code for a color-matched finish. The gas cylinders are specifically tuned for the weight of the Ford Maverick OE hood, providing a premium, controlled lift.
Easy DIY Installation
Unlike other hood lift kits in the truck aftermarket that require drilling or flimsy fender-clip brackets, the MRT hood support kit requires no drilling and no permanent modifications. This means no holes to mar your ride and a rock-solid fit that stays secure through any adventure.MRT Hood Struts install easily in 30 minutes or less using factory attachments. All you need is an 11mm wrench and three sockets. See the "Installation Instructions" tab for more information. All MRT hood struts are designed, engineered, and manufactured at our Plymouth, Michigan shop.
