It’s really nice, no rod in the way, no plastic clip to break and when you release the hood it raises so nice. I think jeep should ask rough country about some deal

I had origionally bought a Hooke Road hood lift/support kit and when it arrived had numerous pieces, crap instructions and just didnt look to be a high quality. So I got this from RC. For starters they have a video for assembly on their website. Far less pieces and looks like an all around better quality. The starting part to hold and catch the first two nuts was a bit tricky by myself leaning over the front and trying to keep my fingers on the wedge while keeping it flush and enough pressure to catch the bolt. I found duct taping the bracket to the hood helped as it freed up the extra hand I didnt have. After that all went quickly. So far its working as expected and making closing and opening the hood easier. I think its also good as it prevents the hood accidentaly falling back to far and slamming the window or frame.

explanintion is pretty easy by following the insturcation manual provided , minor issues are the lifters , are not powerfull to lift the bonnet , when relasing the latch in the front . you need to lift it in the front a bit to help the lifters up and when installing the lower lifters strats on the lines metal brace , the brace is flamzy and maybe after sometime will bend . so we keep the observation in the mean time ,

My TJ came to me with no hood prop, so it's been mildly annoying to have to flip it all the way up onto the top of the windshield every time I need to get under the hood. RC doesn't have the best reputation among Jeep tinkerers (mostly for having inexpensive lift kits that aren't great), but I hoped that something as basic as gas struts to hold up a hood would be okay. As it turned out, this product is decent and I'm glad I got it. The instructions are fairly clear and the rest of it you can figure out yourself. It was very helpful having a step-bit for my drill that could cut sheet metal easily. The TJ hood has a sheet-metal ridge running down the center of the interior side of the hood, and that's what you need to drill through to attach the mounting plate that comes with this kit. The risk of not having a step bit is that you might punch through the inner layer and accidentally also through the outer layer, making a hole all the way through the hood. You can also mitigate this with a block of wood but it's hard to get it in place, whereas a step bit is easy. Once the drilling is done, the rest is pretty easy. It's a bit awkward to attach the gas struts to the installed mounting hardware (you need to hold the hood up and hold the gas strut in place and pop it onto the mounting hardware, all at the same time) but it's doable. I have had the engine-side mounting brackets rotate a bit and that caused the gas struts to pop off of them, but that happed while I was lifting the hood (not when the engine was running) and it was pretty easy to put them back and tighten things down. All in all, money well spent. I really like having the automatic hood prop.
