Hood struts replaced, the hood now lifts on its own. The passenger side strut was simple to replace. The driver side was an exercise in creative cursing. Do you see the pin holding the bottom of the strut? The clip on the pin had to be removed and the pin had to be slid out. My hand barely fits in that space. It took 30 minutes. I did experience a brief moment of disbelief when I finally got that $#(&^#( #$&!@% pin in.
At left, the venerable tent pole. This tent pole has served faultlessly for countless years. Now, finally it can retire. Congratulations tent pole!
Completed:
- Front hood lift struts replaced
