Low pressure CF hood shocks

[Deviate]

Anyone using low pressure hood shocks on their CF hood? If so where did you get them? Any issues? Ive seen them for sale at random, but just want to sure they are worth it. Or should i just run around with my hood prop? Or both ?

Tork Motorsports sells them: Low Pressure Hood Struts

I think it's pretty common people swap to them, depending on the force that the oem struts have it can actually cause the CF hoods to flex or bulge.

They are pretty good. I hate the broomstick so yeah. I got mine from import shark but that's definitely a order and pray seller.

Got mine from Import Shark before Tork sold them. No issues with the company or the product.

Is that an sbgt hood? If so hows the fit?

Yes. Fitment is pretty good. There's a tiny bit more of a gap between the fender and hood compared to OEM. But the the alignment and gap to the front bumper are spot on.

It's pretty straight forward. Unbolt the stock hood (have a helper support the weight), put on the CF hood, prop hood up with stick or get a helper to hold the hood up, and snap the socket of the strut on to the ball (thicker body goes to the hood, skinny rid rod to the body). Profit?

Hey i appreciate it. Im unfortunately used to a lot of adjustments needed when doing hoods. Older rides i played with in my younger years. Which really sounds funny. Thanks for the insight!
