Gas Strut Bonnet Kit · Vehicle-Specific
The last old-school annoyance left on a modern 4WD.

One hand holding the bonnet, one hand trying to work — or worse, it slips and comes down on you. This kit replaces the prop rod permanently with a smooth gas strut system built specifically for your vehicle.

Why you'll love it
Vehicle-specific brackets — not universal

Every kit includes brackets engineered for your exact bonnet, hinge and mounting points. Select your vehicle from the dropdown and you'll receive the correct hardware — no guessing, no fabricating, no mods.

Smooth lift, secure hold

Gas struts absorb the weight and hold the bonnet firmly open. No slipping, no shaking, no sudden drops. One hand to open, hands-free to work.

Done in under 30 minutes

Basic tools only. Most vehicles need no cutting or drilling — brackets bolt directly to existing points. A few models require simple drilling; the install guide walks you through it.

Built for Aussie conditions

Vibration-tested, rust-resistant brackets, weather-proof struts. Built for worksite, touring and off-road — not just smooth driveways.

A quick note on installation

Most vehicles in our range install with no drilling required — brackets bolt to existing points. A small number of models (noted in the install guide) require drilling 2 holes into the bonnet frame. This is simple, clearly guided, and takes about 5 minutes. If you're unsure about your vehicle, message us before ordering.

Common questions
Will this affect my vehicle warranty?
+
The install is fully reversible on most vehicles — the factory prop rod can be refitted if needed. A manufacturer generally can't void your whole vehicle warranty over an unrelated aftermarket part, but we're not lawyers and this isn't legal advice — if you're unsure, it's worth a quick check with your dealer.
Do I need to drill on my vehicle?
+
Most vehicles don't — brackets bolt to existing points. A small number of models need 2 simple holes drilled, which the install guide walks you through. Message us if you want to confirm before ordering.
What if there's a problem?
+
Covered by a 12-month warranty against defects. Faulty unit? We cover return shipping and replace it. 30-day change-of-mind returns on unused items. Full policy here.
