    HMMWV Hood Lift gas shock - anyone MADE one?

    But that 4 inches can be done with 1 or 2 fingers. I literally have to push down slightly to engage the hood latches. It takes more effort to close than open.

    HMMWV Hood Lift gas shock - anyone MADE one?

    Almost lifts on its own. Lift about 4 inches and it goes up by itself.

    HMMWV Hood Lift gas shock - anyone MADE one?

    I had a couple of spare hood lifts for my 2002 Camry so I figured that they should work. It still needs a couple of reinforcement plates across the ribs on the hood, cleaning up and painting but it works great. Opens by itself after raising the hood about 4 inches.
