Hood struts

[MAGS1]

Don't get the MRT struts. They failed within a year and their response was: buy new ones.

Sounds like a great product and even better service.

I got the Roush kit and it works perfect. The lower brackets are a little more beefy than the FP ones and the price isn't that much more.

here's an outlier: california hood struts ENG-157-635
i love 'em.

I’m another outlier - I use the one Ford supplied

It’s free, it works great, the brackets don’t twist, it doesn’t marr the paint or screw up your shut lines and it will most likely outlast the car

I’m prepared for the pending onslaught of abuse …

Same here for same reason.

I have the roush kit, I like the redline too. If you open your hood alot at some point the FP lower bracket will begin to twist...the others have a two point attachment for the brackets.

Thanks for all the feedback. Went with the redlines. $100 bucks on Amazon. Hope they are not counterfeit!

Went with the Steeda hood struts on both my previous Mustang and current Mustang. I also got the Steeda trunk struts which will fully open the trunk upon release. Love them.

I also went with steeda hood struts and they work great, can't recommend them enough. I still have yet to bother with trunk struts. Haven't found a need for them yet, but maybe next spring.

That's odd. I had MRT struts on my 2006, 2013, and 2017 and never had any issues with them. On my 2019 though I opted for the Red Line because I liked the way they fit better.

And I have the Steeda pop the trunk struts as well. Works great.

I ordered the Redlines but found their part that should drop into the openings were just slightly too big and I wasn't in the mood to start filing those openings. I'm going with Ford Performance seeing their nut/washer will fit the opening fine. This could be sloppy work from the plant but the Redline's just wouldn't fit.

I just received my Steeda Trunk Struts. My OEM don't do well with my Anderson CF Super Snake
OE Spoiler.

I just got the steeda HD trunk struts as well since i added the GT500 wing and they are badass!!! trunk shoots open like a missile LMAOOOOO
