Redline Tuning 21-20007-02 Hood QuickLIFT Plus Compatible with Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 2021+ (Bolt-in System - All Black Components)

So worth the money

I added a pair of these to my Gladiator Rubicon, and it was my first upgrade to my Rubicon 392. Aside from trimming the ECU bracket, install was super easy. I did it in 30 minutes including trimming the bracket. The underside of the hood gets hot on the 392, and this keeps me from having to grab the hot prop rod.

Having a 392 I had to modify the bracket on the passenger side fender. Ground down enough for the cylinder to lay down with the hood closed without hitting it. Works great and no more prop rod to pull down and or get in the way!

Works and looks good, wasn’t crazy about the grinding I had to do to the bracket around the top of the battery bracket so it had room to close but overall it is great product.

Makes raising the 392 hood easy. Raises the hood by itself. You do have to push the hood down to set the latches.

These struts are a must for 392 owners because the hood is so darn heavy. You'll have to do a little but of grinding to make them fit but once you install them you'll be happy you did

Easy to install and work amazing

Definitely worth it. Amazing with how much ease you can raise and lower the hood on my 392 Rubicon. Easy to install. Not thrilled about having to cut/trim the bracket on the passenger side (as suggested on the instructions) in order for the strut to fit when you close/lower the hood. If you don't read all of the instructions and fail to make the appropriate modification(s) you will damage it. I chose to use a pair of channel locks and bent mine instead of cutting it so I may bend it back should I ever choose to remove the gas absorbers. A little touch up paint and you can't even tell.

Well These struts and the attachments are well built, but my problems are: 1- the ÉCU bracket still touches even though I cut way more than what the instructions said! I stoped trimming as I might risk damaging that piece beyond it functional integrity. 2- the struts are longer than they should be or they are way too powerful, because the hood when closed is pushed forward few mm. The hood is off alignment from the front grill and increase the gap at the A pillars cowls. Tried adjusting the mounting points etc… spent about three hours fiddling with no luck!! Took them off, and I am really disappointed as I modified the écu bracket now and can’t revert back to original.
