Gas struts for Hood

Skitter302 · Feb 22, 2019

I was looking for a gas strut hood kit for both my Bronco's. Then I started wondering if the the 92-97 OBS kit would work? I thought the Brick nose and round nose used the same springs. Or is there just enough of a difference that the 2 generations can't mix and match this part.

Yo Skitter,

They did mention the year range for a reason, and they're specific for other makes and models.

So suggest you contact them, see https://www.redlinetuning.com/aboutus.asp

Re reading my own post I can see I wasn't being clear enough with 1 question.

The Factory springs from 87-91 and 92-96, are they the same? If so could this lead to other hood parts being compatible between the 2 generations?

Alot of the time they don't list the other generation because they didn't test it on those years of vehicle.

Yo,

From Parts Catalog 87-91 & 92-96 Bronco (Partial) by Ford via miesk5 @ https://www.fullsizebronco.com/forum/15-general-discussion-bronco-wheeling-related/195456-parts-catalog-87-91-92-96-bronco-partial-ford.html#post2656500

As you can see, they have same Ford pn from 87-91.
