Strange problem with hood
Picked up new set of lift supports for hood bought strongarm #4422 (they are for steel hood) won't hold hood open. SoI picked up another set to try same thing. The hood was off the car for an engine change. Any ideas?

Re: Strange problem with hood
The only thing I can think of is try these brands.
There as good as you can get. Especially the Stabilus and is what has been holding a heavy steel 2in cowl hood up. No problem.
Oreillys = http://www.oreillyauto.com/site/c/de...d=lift+support
Autozone = http://www.autozone.com/collision-bo...835_2816_1568/
Here they are installed.
