Gas Strut Bonnet for John Deere 5E, 5M, and 6R Series Tractors

Description

When you’re checking fluids, doing routine maintenance, or troubleshooting engine problems, the last thing you want is wrestling with a hood that won’t stay up. A worn bonnet gas strut turns simple service tasks into a frustrating fight with gravity, and worse—a hood that comes slamming down while you’re working creates a real safety hazard. This replacement strut gets your bonnet working like it should, lifting smoothly and staying put while you take care of business.

What You’re Getting

• 510 Newton pressure rating provides the exact lift force needed for these tractor bonnets
• Smooth, controlled opening and closing action that won’t slam or drop unexpectedly
• Sealed construction that maintains consistent pressure through seasons of farm work
• Direct replacement design that connects to your existing mounting points
• Heavy-duty construction built to handle the vibration and temperature swings of agricultural work

Built for Real Farm Work

This strut is designed for John Deere’s popular utility and row-crop tractors across the 5E, 5M, and 6R series. Whether you’re running a 5085E for livestock operations, a 5100M for mixed farming tasks, or a 6190R for heavy field work, this is the same gas strut that keeps your bonnet operating safely and reliably. These tractors see demanding conditions where dependable hood operation matters for both routine maintenance and emergency repairs.

Made to Last

Farm equipment takes a beating from dust, heat, cold, and constant vibration, and bonnet struts are right in the thick of it. This strut uses quality seals and components that maintain their lifting power season after season, so you don’t have to worry about it failing when you need engine access most.

Good to Know

Always support the bonnet securely before removing the old strut—these hoods are heavier than they look and can cause injury if they fall. The strut typically connects using ball socket ends that snap onto mounting studs. Never try to repair a gas strut yourself—they contain pressurized gas and need to be replaced as complete units for safety.
