Z1 Off-Road Frontier Hood Struts

Great product, super easy to install took about 5 minutes. No more hood prop rod and opens up wider when under the hood ..

Works great and looks good too!

These hood struts were extremely easy to install. Definitely worth the money. They are durable and also give the engine bay a cleaner look.

work great best thing I have done

These are definitely nice to have and I am not regretting the install at all. Go for it

Fit perfect, Great quality.

Easy to install and work great.

Works great, nice improvement over the old prop rod.

The way your truck should have come from Nissan.

One of the best items I bought for my truck and Z1OFF-ROAD had in stock. Got it fast.

Came in a bit scratched up but working very well.

Fitment and function are perfect as expected. The hood actually opens up more now than with the support rod.

Mounts are solid and the struts exceed my expectations! Strong sturdy setup and I'm absolutely not worried about my hood coming down at all! Would recommend for any Frontier owner that does their own work on, or off the trails!

Best things you can buy if you work on your own truck or suv still no stickers

Great product, should have done this sooner. About 3" more of hood lift and no prop rod in the way. Quality components and exact fit using the original bolts.

Great product, easy install,

Extremely happy with quality and functionality! Should have come with these from factory!

This kit is really easy to install, it does not require drilling, just screw the brakets on the hood supports the two pistons are of good quality and solid, they support the weight of the hood well, I recommend this product from Z1-off road, avoid buying the poor quality copies found on Amazon.

Great product. High quality and easy to install. Works perfect. Wish I had this setup years ago! Easy to deal with Z1!

Ordered the product Sunday Evening 02/26/2023. Received an email the following morning that the order was processed and packaged and received product Tuesday 02/28/2023. Install was straightforward and took me about 20 minutes. I had read that this product actually raises the lift height of the hood a couple of inches and was a little worried about my aftermarket Ronin Factory Nissan Short antenna making contact with the hood, but at full height there is about 1/8 of an inch clearance. The struts look and work great.

Really easy install, took less than 20 minutes for a satisfying and easy result.

Easy install. Just don't mix up the fender brackets.

So much nicer than the prop rod. Hood even opens a couple more inches

Perfect fit,gives it a more exspensive feel and operation.

Easy to install Easy to use Do it

Perfect fit sturdy quality of all the parts. Opens the hood even higher than the single rod. Much easier to work on the vehicle with these installed.

I never thought I'd appreciate something so small as a hood that stays open without a prop but this was perfect.

very good and easy to install

This is a nice kit and is much nicer then messing with the prop rod and having to work around it. I would have given it 5 stars but these struts have this little wire retaining clip you have to remove and then reinsert once strut is in place. These are a PITA! The 2 on the bottom were very simple and went in very easily. But the ones of the top were a PITA. I spent close to 45 minutes trying to get the top ones in place. I finally took a small hammer and tapped them on to the ball on one the wire retainer went in relatively easily. On the other side I could not get it to seat. After the wire retainer bent the 2nd time I gave up and only have it through the bottom hole. It is bent and sticking out on the far side. LOL. But it works and is retaining the strut. It is great improvement and worth the time and money. But I wish they would switch to a traditional ball retaining system vs. the wire clip these use.

Security pin was hard to install.

Must have mod! I can’t believe this Doesn’t come as standard equipment on a $40k truck, but it should. Love the addition. After installing this we went looking for, found, and installed a tail gate assist, another must have mod!

Easy installation. Only problem I have is there was a burr on one of the end where the locking pin goes and once the end was attached to the bracket I was unable to place the locking pin.

Love the Hood Struts! It looks much better than just a metal stick and gives you more room under the hood to work.

simple install & no more hood prop rod in the way

Great product and a needed addition for anyone ever having to go under their hood. Excellent customer service as well. 👍

These hood struts perform as advertised. Installation was fairly quick and easy. There were no Installation instructions in the box. However there is installation instructions on a Z1 website. Good value for the money.

I haven't installed this yet but quality looks good.

So good so far. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 because when I ordered they were not marked as out of stock or back ordered. But once they shipped I received them in 2 days. Install is a breeze took maybe 10 minutes. Hardest part was getting the small retaining pins back in. Would definitely recommend this product.

I installed these on my 2013 Nissan Frontier SL. Downloaded the instructions from the Z1 website. Pretty straight forward. I didn't time it, but it was probably quicker installing these than me figuring out how to remove the factory prop rod. IMO, these hood struts should have been factory installed. Anyway, money well spent.

This is a great idea. Makes my truck feel like a more high end vehicle. And I don't have to fumble with that hood prop rod anymore.

I installed these in less than five minutes, they worked out great, thanks!!!
