Which hood struts did you buy?

Had to do a little grinding on mine to make them fit but really like how sturdy they are

Look amazing on your mustang

Where did you have to grind if you don’t mind me asking? Save me a little headache. Thanks

The bracket on the hood side, back bolt. Had to grind about a quarter inch off.

I have the Roush kit. Took my wife and I a couple of adjustments to get it right but they are great. No issues.

Ford performance struts used on my 2018 baby

I have Redline Tuning hood struts on my coupe and the Ford Performance kit on my convertible.

I use the Ford Performance as well. I had to reroute the washer fluid line from harms way once I realized there was an issue.
Easy Peasy!

I have the generic American Muscle brand on my 17 vert, no modifications needed, just bolt on and enjoy. But only unbolt one side of the hinge and bolt on the bracket at a time, then the hood won't move.

I have the redlines on my explorer ST

I put Ford Performance struts on my '18 Coupe and Convertible, neither set went 18 months before they stopped lifting. I sold the coupe, but at this point on the convertible, all they do is hold the hood up once you've raised it yourself. Not a huge issue, but I feel at some point, they'll stop holding it open.

Put Redlines on the V6, they're great, like they've been on multiple cars in the past.

No more FP.

For those of you with 18's and redlines how did you end up route the washer line?

Jk: you just unclip the last one and tuck it behind the strut end.

Cant believe I waited 2 years to get those.
