Description
You know the drill – every time you lift the hood to check the oil or add hydraulic fluid, you’re wrestling with it to stay open. A good gas strut makes all the difference between a hood that holds itself up and one that tries to slam down on your head while you’re working. This replacement hood gas strut keeps your bonnet open steady and secure, just like it did when your tractor rolled off the lot.
What You’re Getting
- Controlled gas pressure that holds the hood exactly where you need it for safe maintenance
- Durable seals that maintain consistent pressure through temperature swings and weather
- Direct factory replacement – no adapters or modifications needed to get it working
- Heavy-duty construction that handles the constant cycling of daily use
Built for Real Farm Work
This gas strut fits a solid range of John Deere utility and mid-size tractors from the 50 and 55 series. These are the workhorses you’ll find everywhere from small farms to custom operators – machines that handle everything from loader work to field cultivation and hay operations.
Made to Last
Farm equipment hoods get opened dozens of times during busy seasons, and this strut is built to handle that punishment. The internal components resist corrosion and the seals stay flexible even after years of exposure to engine heat, hydraulic fluid, and weather.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward – just remove the old strut and bolt this one in place using the existing mounting points. If your old strut has been weak for a while, take a moment to check that the hood hinges and latches are still in good shape before installing the new one.
