The UPR set look way to weak.
my hood weighs in at 50 plus pounds by the way.

Is it possible to trade just the struts for heavy duty ones. I don't know if they are inter-changeable though. But its worth checking out at an auto supply store.

I just put these on, very nice and there color matches so they blend in well.

I used the ones from Moss Mustang. They are good hood struts and they are only a fraction of the price. The only drawback is you need to use rivets on the hood. If you change out the hood, just drill out the rivets.
