Description

There’s nothing quite as frustrating as a hood that won’t stay up when you’re trying to check fluids or do routine maintenance. When your hood gas strut starts getting weak, you end up holding a heavy hood with one hand while trying to work with the other—not exactly safe or comfortable. This replacement strut gives you back that reliable, hands-free hood support you need for safer maintenance work.

What You’re Getting

Strong 900 Newton force rating keeps even heavy hoods securely open during maintenance
355mm overall length with 105mm ram extension matches factory specifications exactly
Smooth operation that makes opening and closing the hood effortless
Direct replacement for your original equipment—no modifications needed

Built for Real Farm Work

This strut fits John Deere 6000 and 6010 series tractors, including models from the 6100 utility tractors up through the powerful 6910 row-crop machines. These are the workhorses handling everything from loader work to heavy field operations, where you need reliable access to the engine compartment for daily checks and seasonal maintenance.

Made to Last

Built with the proper 900 Newton rating to handle the weight of John Deere hoods without causing damage or glass breakage. The heavy-duty construction holds up to the bumps and vibration of field work while maintaining consistent pressure over time.

Good to Know

Always check the Newton rating on your existing gas strut before ordering—using the wrong rating can damage your hood or break glass. Installation is straightforward, but support the hood while you swap struts. A quick tip: if your old strut is stuck, a little penetrating oil on the mounting points helps with removal.
