Description

When you’re checking fluid levels, changing filters, or doing routine maintenance on your John Deere 50 series tractor, the last thing you want is wrestling with a heavy hood that won’t stay up. A worn-out gas strut makes simple service work dangerous—that hood can come crashing down while you’re leaning over the engine. This replacement strut keeps your bonnet propped open safely so you can focus on the work that needs doing.

What You’re Getting

Strong lift assistance that holds your hood securely in the open position
Direct replacement for worn factory struts—no modifications needed
Quality construction that handles the vibration and temperature swings of farm work
Ball socket mounting ends that snap onto existing hood mounting studs

Built for Real Farm Work

This strut fits the complete John Deere 50 series lineup from the 1350 utility tractors up through the 2850 row-crop machines, plus the 51 series 3351 and 3651 models. Whether you’re running a compact tractor for livestock work or a bigger machine for row crop farming, these tractors see daily use where reliable hood access is essential for keeping things running.

Made to Last

Farm equipment operates in tough conditions with dust, heat, and constant vibration taking their toll. This gas strut is built with quality seals that maintain proper pressure season after season, so you won’t have to deal with a sagging hood when you need engine access most.

Good to Know

Installation is straightforward—remove the old strut and snap the new one onto the existing mounting points. Always support the hood securely before removing the old strut since these hoods are heavier than they look. Never try to repair a gas strut—they contain pressurized gas and need to be replaced as complete units for safety.
