Description
When your John Deere’s hood suddenly drops on your head while checking oil levels or changing filters, you know that gas strut has given up. A worn-out bonnet strut makes routine maintenance dangerous and frustrating – you’re left holding up hundreds of pounds of metal with one hand while trying to work with the other. Using a gas strut with the wrong newton rating can result in damage or glass breakage, and you’ll need to check the newton rating of your existing strut before ordering a replacement.
What You’re Getting
- 800 Newton force rating provides proper lift and hold for your tractor’s heavy engine hood
- 545mm overall length with 190mm ram extension – matches factory specifications exactly
- Heavy-duty sealed construction that maintains consistent pressure through all weather conditions
- Direct replacement design that mounts to existing attachment points without modifications
Built for Real Farm Work
This gas strut keeps your engine hood safely propped open on a wide range of John Deere utility and row-crop tractors. Whether you’re running a 6020 series for general farm work, a 7030 series for heavy tillage, or any of the compatible 6-cylinder models, this strut handles the weight and vibration that comes with regular maintenance in dusty, demanding conditions.
Made to Last
Farm equipment maintenance can’t wait for perfect conditions, and this strut is built to handle whatever you throw at it. The 800 Newton rating is specifically calibrated for these tractor models, ensuring smooth operation without being too weak to hold the hood up or too strong and causing stress on the hinges.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward – the gas strut connects to existing ball joint mounts on both the hood and frame. Make sure to support the hood during installation and never exceed the newton rating specified for your tractor model. If your old strut has been gradually weakening, you’ll be amazed at how much easier maintenance becomes with proper hood support.
