Ford DIY Hood Struts

Whether you're tuning your engine or just doing a scheduled oil change, you need a solid way to hold the hood up as you work. MRT hood struts are the original no-drill hood strut that are functional, rugged, stylish and ridiculously easy to install. Replacing the flimsy factory prop rod with this sturdy lift support improves garage safety while adding a performance look that is sure to impress at racetracks and car shows - and you won't have to sully your machine by drilling holes in the hood. Get a set of MRT hood struts for your Ford car, truck or SUV and see why they're an effective aftermarket upgrade over OEM.

We carry handcrafted hood struts for almost every generation of Mustang along with newer Focus, Explorer, Bronco and Maverick models. Get an MRT Mustang hood strut kit for models past and present, including rarer models like the GT350. These struts use OEM hood attachment points and can be installed in 15 minutes or less using just a 10mm wrench. You don't even need extra bolts. The strut brackets are made of high-quality steel that will last through countless maintenance and modding projects. If your vehicle has an aftermarket hood, call us at 734-455-5807 and give us the hood's weight. We'll supply the right strut cylinder size so it will function like a factory hood strut.

Handcrafted Custom Hood Supports

A set of no-drill hood struts is an affordable DIY way to raise the performance and style of both street and show cars. All MRT lift support parts are made in the U.S. at our Plymouth, Michigan headquarters for car guys like us. We inspect our products at least four times before shipping approval so you know they're high-quality.

The struts and brackets come standard with a durable matte black powder coat finish - but for an additional fee, we can custom-paint your brackets in more than 30 colors from school bus yellow to sonic blue. We can even match the original factory paint code. Simply select the "Factor Paint Color Code" option in the Bracket Color dropdown menu during checkout. Click on the strut for your model year to find detailed installation instructions and much more.
