How hard do they push the hood up? Our hoods are light and I have seen some struts that rocket the hood up at 50mph, lol.

They are softer force than some of the other modes I have seen first hand.
50mph... I would say no but they will lift on their own after about 1/3 the way up so if you lift it in a hurry as if you were helping it up it will likely have a little snap to it. I went through 8 different strength sets until we found what we liked best, I reduced it substantially from where I started. I know we are using 50% less force than of some others I have seen out there. |

Got a vid? I'm an easy sell if I can see it in action. Would swing by but I'm out of town for a bit.

Where do the ball studs attach to? I just looked at the engine compartment and did not see where they would mount.
