I have bought redline struts for all 4 of my jeeps 2 wranglers and 2 Cherokees, they are great and get rid of the stupid stick/rod, and still can disconnect easily to lay hood open when needed.

Everyone will have different experiences using this kit. However, I do prefer it over assembling $45 bucks worth of cheap China sourced parts (which is okay for short term use). The gas cartridges seem to be very high quality. Redline says they are U. S. made. They are robust and have a progressive lift characteristic. The problem is that the 4 identical brackets, while super high quality, may not fit so easily on the passenger engine bay in some (especially early Renix design) XJ’s. In my ‘89, the bracket that must hold the pressurized overflow bottle at the highest point in the engine bay takes up the space for the bracket. I suppose I could have disassembled all that and severely chopped up the bracket, but it was much easier to use a different lower bracket. Amazon sells a small, round side-mount 10mm ball stud bracket that allows the stud to remain at the recommended mount height and it has three screw holes. I used just two holes on the passenger side because the bottle bracket sandwiched the third hole, and only two screws would work fine anyway. The included rivets were a non-starter for me. I preferred to drill out 5/64” holes and fit them with snug #8 sheet metal screws of 1/2” length which worked out great.

My wife is a little short and was having a hard time with the hood prop on our lifted '97 XJ. Figured this might help. I have to say, I LIKE these! The hood opens and closes smoothly and with not much effort. Installation was fairly straight forward and I would only advise that you read the instructions carefully before you start the installation.I knocked off a star only because I am not a huge fan of pop rivets. I understand why they are provided but plan on replacing them with nut-certs and small bolts/screws sometime in the future if the pop rivets start to loosen.Very good product

While not the least expensive out there, the convenience of a full instruction set & someone who has iterated through placement is worthwhile. Very professionally packaged, including instructions.

just measure and mark with tape like the instructions say. it took me 15 min with 23 dollar amazon rivit gun. super straight forward. it's a must for these heavy hoods.

On my 2001 XJ there is a bracket for EVAP filter and stuff that bolts up in the same location as the strut bracket. I cut the back tab off to make room for the new bracket. I'm not concerned because there is another bolt on the bottom of the bracket so there are still 2 points of attachment. When the hood is popped open it's smooth and the struts are designed to slow down before reaching full opening height. If you work on your ride a lot it's a great mod. I think it's a little expensive so I hope the struts prove to be a lot better quality than the cheap options.
