Automotive lift support hood

The FCS STRUTS 84161 is a transparent lift support hood designed for automotive accessory applications. It provides a direct replacement component for vehicle hood lift mechanisms. The unit is supplied in new condition and listed under the manufacturer part number 84161.

Replaces worn original equipment

This lift support hood substitutes a factory-installed strut that has lost pressure or failed over time. The swap is worth it when the hood no longer stays open on its own or closes unexpectedly during use. Installation restores reliable hands-free hood operation for maintenance access.

Suits owners needing a direct-fit strut

Vehicle owners seeking a transparent-coloured replacement for a specific hood lift point will find this part matches the required fitment. Buyers who need a different length, force rating or mounting style should verify specifications before purchase. Those requiring a complete kit for both sides should look for a paired set.

Questions about this item

What mounting points does the 84161 lift support hood require on the vehicle?

The 84161 lift support hood attaches to the factory hood hinge and latch brackets using the original ball-stud sockets; no drilling or extra brackets are needed.

Which step do installers most often miss when fitting the 84161 lift support?

Many forget to support the hood with a prop rod before removing the old struts, letting the hood slam shut and bending the hinge alignment.

When should the 84161 lift support be checked or replaced?

Inspect the 84161 unit annually for loss of pressure, oil seepage at the seal, or hood drift; replace it once the hood no longer stays fully open on its own.
