Re: FS: SY/TY Hood Strut Kits
Yes we designed them to really be out of the way so you have room to work on the motor. It takes a strut with much higher force to pull this off. For this reason, we incorporate end-of-stroke dampening in each strut.

Re: FS: SY/TY Hood Strut Kits
Some measuring, and you need to drill 6 holes, 2 in each fender (self tapping screws for bottom mount), 1 in each hood hinge (For top mount) .
Look at the pic I posted in post #46, the blocks with 2 screws mount to fender. Then the top of the strut has a stud with a ball on in that mounts in the hole drilled into the hinge. The strut then connects to the 2 ball studs.
Hope this answers your question...:tup:

Re: FS: SY/TY Hood Strut Kits
Here 'ya go. Installation on the Ty was a steep learning curve (always use the wife's truck as a testbed
). Installation on the Sy was relatively easy. Good tip was to remove the mounting bolts on the ABS and move it a little to the side to get working room to drill and attach the driver side mounting block.
Need to include a couple to include a couple of spare Jesus clips in the kit. You drop one of the little bastards down into the truck innards, you're shit out of luck with the rest of the install. Overall, I'm very pleased with how the installs turned out.
