      Description

      Effortless Hood Support. The MRT Hood Struts Black provide a reliable alternative to the factory hood prop rod on classic Mustangs. By installing these struts, hood lifting and support become effortless, improving both the look and functionality of the engine bay. This kit supports the hood gently and safely during maintenance or display and helps prevent accidental hood drop.

      Robust Construction And Finish. The strut brackets are manufactured from high-quality steel and coated with a durable powder coat finish that resists rust, corrosion, and scratching. The standard finish is a matte black satin, delivering a clean, professional appearance that complements the vehicle’s underhood aesthetics.

      Simple Installation. Engineered for ease of installation, these hood struts require no drilling or special tools and can be installed within 30 minutes. By reusing existing factory attachment points, the installation process maintains the vehicle's originality and allows for straightforward removal if necessary.

      Application. Specifically designed for factory OEM hoods on Mustangs from model years 1979 through 1993. This kit does not fit aftermarket hoods without prior consultation and calibration due to weight differences, and some aftermarket caster camber plates may interfere with the installation.
