Questions & Answers

Does one clamp come with this order or does it come with a pair?

There is a pair of them

Could these be applied to larger struts like those on Lexus cars, for example? At the moment, I have to use a hood prop rod because my current vehicle does not have one. ?

vouch for the fact that my 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 was well taken care of by them. Due to the size of the struts, it's very large to hold up the hood and the grille attached. A dodge can be fitted in without taking up too much room.

Does it come with a ?

It is surprising how little these little guys are
3/5

At first they aren't too bad, but after a few uses they begin to bend at their thin center section, causing a When a body bends, it is less likely to be able to clamp. In order for the backstrap to fit properly, I had to weld it For the time being, this is only a temporary solution. These will be made out of steel one day. I wouldn't waste 20 dollars on this. It is disappointing that OTC did an inept job on these. Tools made by them have usually been of high quality.

I have purchased several hood support clamps in my lifetime, but these are the best ones yet
5/5

My profession is a mechanic, so these clamps are among the best I have ever used. It is not made of cheap plastic that is prone to failure. Using the clamp handle you can tighten them quite tight, which will help when you close the hood. This will keep the hood from closing easily, and will keep the clamps from getting lost. To date, I have had a positive experience with OTC tools, which appear to be well made.

It seems to be of good I personally prefer this hood over those with the big red tags on the hood just to help me remember it
5/5

It still holds the hood up really well no matter how leaky the hood struts are. They come in twin packs, so you can use them for those heavy hoods.

It is a metal set without the handle and both are included for the price of one
5/5

I ordered two sets by mistake because I assumed for the price it was really just one clamp and that it was just higher than the plastic handles. They have a large slot for the strut so I cannot imagine that they would not fit like the smaller ones do. They are blue (so what) and they have a large slot for the strut so I cannot imagine they wouldn't work. All the plates are metal, so they won't fatigue as easily as a plastic plate.

This is cheap
3/5

I bought a pair because they were cheap and weak. An end of a month's use brought one to a halt. It didn't even need to be that tight and yet it The type of support used by this company must just be a low grade, inactive metal composite. I have seen similar supports manufactured by other companies without any issues.

I love them (mine are blue, not red as shown in the photo)
5/5

I had blue ones, not red ones. This set of hood hooks fits my 2006 Dodge Ram perfectly and holds the hood up securely. Due to their variable openings, nearly any rod size will work with them!.

It is dangerous
3/5

There is a risk of injury or death when using this product. Once it has been used for a few times, it bent, almost broke. The design is not well thought out, it is The two packs of two were returned, and Amazon refunded one of them only.
It's time to put an end to online shopping.
