Thats cool and what Kwon said add details please

you guys could use jeep cherokee hood struts as well they are like $12 a piece and mount almost the same way.

 

i like this, i wanna pick up 4 of those and do my hood and bed cover, did it come with the mounting stud and screws?

 

Love

It

:thumbup:

 

Awesome but Damn the truck is dirty

 

i know.. im pissed at my truck since last fall.. it's fucked everywheree so ive stopped washing it

first ive hit that old lady that decided to slam on the brake because her husband told her that she was not going on the correct street..then ive backed up while turning into a light pole cement base..fucked up the whole side/door/body kit... yea.. i did that.. then ive backed in it with my sierra 2500... yup.. so i decided not to see all this all day..it's 3-4 month she's dirty as hell..

better this way..

it's going in the body shop in april

im stupid

 

:thumbup:

 

thanks guys!! just make sure if you do this to grab some strut that are at least 40lbs..

and those are 12inclose 20in open

 

the ones for 7.99 on the website said 30lbs didnt they?

 

very nice job

 

Nice work

 

Well those at 30pounds are making it alot Easyer to lift from poped to like 3/4 open they they start to really lifting the hood by their self.. I guess 40 or 50 pounds would lift it from zero...

 

That would be great..

 

Good job.
I see that the first location (see other holes) didn't work out, lol.

 

Nop! I couldn't close the hood!

 

What about those mesurement to position the shocks correctly ?

so we don't have to swiss our truck (swiss cheese HAHA)

 

Loll ok I'll do the tape work for you guys

 

I took a look at your pics of the truck before, I wouldn't wash it either, it looked great.

 

Looks awesome!
HOW-TO PLEASE!

 

awesome job rastok! X2 to the how to (pssst put one on C355 as well )
much cheaper alternative to the redline tuning ones!

 

Thanks !!!


Well Im ordering some 50 pounds from eBay with some better braket and I'll do the how to for ya!

It's really fuking easy btw specially if you have the mesuremts and the same strut/bracket.. Piece of cake!!

 

How To Please! that'd be great! also thats really cool that youfound away around $200.

 

Ill probably take some pictures for a how to tomorrow.
