Description

When your Massey Ferguson’s hood won’t stay open during routine maintenance or slams shut while you’re checking oil, you know how frustrating that can be. A worn gas strut makes simple tasks like adding hydraulic fluid or checking belts into a wrestling match. This 1700 Newton replacement strut restores that smooth, controlled lift you need to keep your tractor running right.

What You’re Getting

Heavy-duty 1700 Newton gas pressure designed for large MF hoods
Controlled lifting and lowering prevents hood damage and injury
Direct replacement that mounts to existing bracket points
Sealed gas chamber design that maintains consistent pressure
Quality construction built to handle daily farm use

Built for Real Farm Work

This gas strut is engineered specifically for the larger Massey Ferguson tractors in the 5400, 6400, and 7400 series. These are the workhorses you’ll find in row crop operations, hay production, and heavy field work where regular maintenance access is crucial for keeping things running smoothly.

Made to Last

Farm equipment takes a beating, and hood struts are no exception. This replacement features a sealed nitrogen gas chamber that won’t leak down over time and chrome-plated rod that resists corrosion from weather and condensation. The mounting hardware is built to handle the constant vibration and stress of field operations.

Installation Notes

This strut mounts using the factory bracket locations with ball joint connections. Always support the hood before removing the old strut—these hoods are heavier than they look. If you’re replacing just one strut, consider doing both sides at the same time for balanced operation and to avoid uneven lifting.
