Bob, will these be available again after the initial run. I can imagine a few of my friends wanting some of these after they see mine. If I can I think I'd like to change my order to THREE.

cheekychimp we will be able to get more. No worries there. It would be cheaper for you to ship 3 at one time to you because of the shipping cost.

Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4

 1st set
Here is my honest take on them:
Instructions could be a bit better. The noob wrencher will struggle for about 10 minutes trying to figure out how best to align the hood side brackets. You MUST remove the small metal clip on each pin cup to pop on and then re-install the clips to keep them from falling off. (really simple) If you don't, they will not slide onto the pins.
Oh, and the package says 97-01 Galant. Relabel please  .
That's it, really simple. Very tidy and smart.
Here are some pics on a fully assembled car. You cannot see them at all when the hood is closed, even on a white car.
As you can see by the hinges, the hood is all the way open and that is a great thing.
Here are both sides of rods close up.
And now for the wide open look, you really can't open the hood any further. It is at least 5 inches higher than using the stock prop rod.
And for that ubber ricer look, you can have the hood open half way.

|
|
|
Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4
|
|
I think I was first only because of my schedule leaving for a while on vacation. That is most likely why the packaging was mis- labeled.
I am sure the "official" ready for sale post will come soon.

Thanks for posting the pictures. Oh and your engine bay is super clean.
The kit is not for the 97-01 galant. The hood and strut is different. It would have cost more money to make new packaging and I was trying to keep the price down.
This was the first kit I had air shipped in to make sure the fitment was spot on. I am running the same kit on my car. I won't have the others until the beginning of Nov. Once I have I will sent a message to each person on the list to pay.

Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4

Hi I'm very interested in a set for a 91' CB GSR lancer (sold as a Colt in the US), judging by the pics we share the same hood hinges/brackets so if my front guard bolts are positioned okay these may be a bolt in fit...could you please advise the fully compressed length so I can measure for fitment to my car? I'm very interested in a set! Thanks.

"stealthtt24" I seem to remember when I fitted my struts that the instructions do state you should fit the struts the way you have them (i.e. with the piston attached to the fender and the cylinder/strut attached to the hood).
That said ...
If you look at the pictures below you can see that Terry fitted these with the struts reversed which gives much more clearance and allows that bracket to sit straight. This was exactly how I ended up doing this, because I couldn't get my hood to close properly with the struts mounted the way you have them. The thicker part would touch the top fender mounting bolt on my car causing the hood to start to 'bow' as it closed.
In my opinion the way Terry did this is best since the angled part of the bracket with the ball rests on the shoulder of the OEM hinge, preventing it from rotating out of place and placing strain on the joint. Ideally I would have liked to have seen these brackets attach to both the hood bolts so that they were held in place and could not rotate but I suspect that they were designed this way so that they could be fitted without loosening the hood completely and messing up the alignment ... coz then G would get on our cases

Those look awesome! I'm hoping it will minimize the risk of slamming my head on the corner of the hood (again) by lifting it a little bit higher. If you have a set now, I'll take one.
Ha, without the hood prop my only wonder is what I'm going to hook my power steering pump on when I change alternators

I have to admit, i was critical of these until i saw so many people have installed and loved them. I've just ordered a set and can't wait to see them here. I hate the hood prop. It's always in the way of everything. Being able to put the hood up higher is definitely a bonus as well!

What happens when the struts die and we need replacements?
After this run is done, maybe we should know brand/model of struts used so we can get replacements. Yes?
I've no problem with someone turning a profit, but if they choose to not continue offering the product, please let us know where to buy replacement parts.
Thanks.

Mine have been holding the hood up for about a month now. I've closed the hood a few times. They seem to be nice solid units.
I had to make sure and torque down the brackets on the hood REALLY tight, though. These brackets could use some minor revision, but otherwise i'm very pleased with these struts.
Thanks BOB!

Ok. I'm an idiot. Once the guy (IIRC his name was Aaron?) told me I wouldn't be able to compress them by hand, I went ahead and installed em. Went on without much issue.
Hardest part was getting them aligned so they wouldn't hit the fenders.

Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4

its awesome, i just finished installing mine and i couldn't be happier. it really makes things so much nicer. i opened my hood like 7 times since i installed them, its also nice not to have to look at a prop rod. totally worth the 80$, also once this batch is gone who knows when he'll do it again. i had to wait from the last batch for mine because i thought yeah i might want these and then i saw he had none left. when he got this batch and posted about it i got the first set, i think.

Quoting transparentdsm:
its awesome, i just finished installing mine and i couldn't be happier. it really makes things so much nicer. i opened my hood like 7 times since i installed them, its also nice not to have to look at a prop rod. totally worth the 80$, also once this batch is gone who knows when he'll do it again. i had to wait from the last batch for mine because i thought yeah i might want these and then i saw he had none left. when he got this batch and posted about it i got the first set, i think.
Thanks for the feedback. Glad to hear you like them I can always get more down the road. So if you miss out on this batch. There can be more if the demand is there.

Will somebody do me a big favor and make a measurement of the distance between that front(top) hood mounting bolt and the fender bolt that the kit replaces with the ball? I want to run these on my turbo Mirage, but would like to know if they fit first.

With my hood fully open with the gas struts on (which open it a hair more than with the stock prop rod, I measured about 14-7/8". Just under 15" using a tape measure.

|
Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4
|

Thanks Wop. I know it's a tall order, but could you get me a rough estimate of the distance with the hood closed too? I gotta make sure it doesn't bind up and keep the hood from closing cause it's too long.

Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4

Put these on the Galant and Eclipse today. I think they're my favorite mods after boost. Lifts the Galant hood an extra 4-5 inches.
I'm hoping this will prevent me slamming my head on the corner of the hood...which I did again just the other day.
I'm going back out in a few minutes and see what I can now reach from that corner...hot pipe to the IC, alternator and p/s pump adjustment, etc.
No additional hood lift on the Eclipse though. It sits exactly the same as with the rod.
Thanks for the quick shipping too Bob!

Re: FS: Hood Struts GVR4

Best mod I ever did to the car. It felt great to throw the old hood prop in the corner of the garage.
I've had em installed for about 6 months now, but have always wondered how strong they were...Figuring that the struts were barely enough to handle the weight of the hood. I was most definitely wrong. I had a few inches of snow on the hood last week (I figure the snow doubled or tripled the weight of the hood) and the hood struts held the hood open without issue.

[quote. name=bobdole]Polished kit installed.
I can do a run of these if interested. They would be $99.95 shipped. I can also do Carbon fiber. They would be $113.95 shipped.
These are the ones I emailed you about. Can't see how you never offered them if they are right here quoted by you, haha.

I got no interest in the polished finish that is why they weren't made. I can do them if interested, but would have to be on my next order.
