OEM quality gas struts are included in this kit. We have engineered Steeda's S550 Mustang Hood Strut Kit for 2015+ GT, EcoBoost, and V6 Mustangs to fit and function better than the other kits on the market - Steeda brackets have three times more surface area than our competitors' to disperse the force of the hood struts over a greater area.
Our brackets have been designed to provide extra support for the hood, and Steeda provides a neoprene adhesive material to protect the paint on the underside of your hood with no metal-to-metal contact.
Note: Does not GT350 or GT500 due to different hood design

Don't let your factory prop rod distract from all that power you've packed under the hood. Give your engine bay a clean, custom look with MRT Hood Struts for the 2015-18 Ford Mustang, featuring the Original, "No Drill" design.
Unlike other Hood Strut Kits in the aftermarket, the MRT Kit requires NO DRILLING for installation, meaning no holes drilled ANYWHERE. MRT Hood Struts easily install in 15 minutes or less from start to finish. The only tools required are a ratchet with 10 mm and 13 mm sockets. Because MRT designed this kit for the 2015-16 Mustang, there are no extra modifications to the vehicle. Components simply bolt on at OEM factory mounting locations.
Gas Cylinders in all MRT kits feature a black powder-coat finish. Several finish options are available for the Hood Strut Brackets. The standard bracket finish is a satin black powder-coat. To give your Mustang a personalized touch, upgrade to one of our many custom paint options. Select your custom paint option above or contact us to order. Please allow a 1-2 week lead time for custom painted brackets.
NOTES:Simply start to lift your hood and let the Hood Lift system take over. Your hood will lift and hold firmly at the raised position - no wind or bumping will knock your hood down on your head. These gas struts are rated at 90 LBS to hold up OEM and specialty hoods.
Due to the leverage when open, a 90 LBS rated strut will keep the hood open securely.

Features
No compromise system design - We design and engineer our QuickLIFT systems, mounting the gas springs where they need to be for proper function. We will not compromise the system design if it affects the final function in any way, this is why Redline Tuning leads the industry.
Simple one-handed operation, simply start to lift the hood and it will raise to the stock height unassisted in a smooth and controlled motion.
Progressive gas springs. Our springs are not off the shelf struts, they are designed by us and manufactured to our specifications for each vehicle application. Our exclusive end-of-force dampening slows the rate of extension over the final inches of travel eliminating stress to the hood.
QuickLIFT systems work with any hood (steel, fiberglass, SMC, carbon fiber etc.) - we design our systems using the stock hood so the main market is covered, however, our systems are designed to work with ALL aftermarket hoods unless otherwise specified.
There are some applications where a unique system is required for an aftermarket hood, read the product technical specifications section for specifics on each application.
Quick and simple installation – We design every QuickLIFT system and we write all of our own documentation. FULL COLOR installation manuals will arrive that will walk anyone through this simple installation - our customer comes first. You do NOT need to be a mechanic or car nut like us - we are so confident in our products that we post every installation manual on our website for you to review prior to ordering
