Built from rugged steel and engineered to match the tension and dimensions of original GM springs, this component ensures smooth, safe hood operation when paired with factory or reproduction hinges. The 28-coil design delivers consistent lift and hold, preventing premature sagging or stress on the hinge assembly. Whether replacing a fatigued spring or completing a full hood mechanism rebuild, this spring is essential for long-term reliability.

Instructions: Use a proper spring installation/removal tool or heavy-duty vise grips to safely extend the spring.
