ULTIMATE "No-Drill" Lift Hood Strut Kit
Ditch the restrictive factory hood prop rod and open up your engine bay with the Ultimate Lift Hood Strut Kit. Engineered specifically for classic 2nd Generation 4Runners and late-model Hilux Pickups, this kit completely eliminates front-end clutter, providing an unobstructed, clear workspace for routine maintenance, engine cleaning, and mechanical upgrades.
100% Bolt-On "No-Drill" Engineering
Part of our signature "No-Drill" series, this premium system is 100% bolt-on. It requires absolutely no drilling, tapping, or permanent modifications to your vehicle's sheet metal. Because it utilizes existing factory mounting points, installation is incredibly straightforward and completely reversible should you ever want to return the vehicle it stock.
Effortless Fluid Operation
Experience smooth, one-handed hood operation. The precisely valved gas struts lift the hood effortlessly to its fully extended position holding it securely even in windy trail conditions. When you're finished under the hood, the struts allow the hood to close smoothly and latch securely without violent slamming.

Technical & Fitment Notes
- Factory Clearances: This kit is designed and fully tested to fit stock engine bays. If you have a custom additions or aftermarket alterations along your inner fender aprons (such as custom air boxes, dual battery setups, or auxiliary electronics), please contact our tech support team prior to ordering. We regularly work with customers to accommodate unique under-hood layouts.
- EVAP Bracket Notice: On certain model packages, minor modification to the small factory sheet metal bracket holding the EVAP connector is required. A small corner of that factory bracket must be trimmed down to allow clearance for the strut body (as shown in the product photos), and the connector can then be safely secured to an adjacent harness using a heavy-duty zip tie.

Great kit
Great kit from Spiker Engineering! Bolted right up to my 94 2WD Hilux. All you'll need are a 10mm socket (and a ratchet or driver), a 10mm wrench, and a 4mm Allen head (wrench, socket, whatever). I added some Loctite orange, probably not a bad idea for you 4WD Yotas out there. One day I'll nickel plate the hardware.
