Description

There’s nothing more frustrating than a hood that won’t stay up when you’re trying to check fluids or do routine maintenance on your Valtra. A worn gas strut turns routine service into a frustrating and potentially dangerous situation, especially when you’re dealing with the substantial weight of these tractor hoods. This replacement strut gets your hood working like it should, holding steady while you take care of business.

What You’re Getting

Reliable support that holds your hood at the proper angle for safe maintenance work
Quality seals and components that maintain their lifting power season after season
Ball socket ends that snap securely onto existing mounting studs
Direct replacement design that fits your Valtra’s original mounting points

Built for Real Farm Work

This strut works with Valtra A Series tractors that are workhorses on farms across the country, handling everything from field prep and planting to hay operations and loader work. Whether you’re running an A75 for daily chores or depending on an A95 for heavier field operations, this strut provides the exact support your hood needs for safe access to engine components.

Made to Last

Farm equipment takes a beating from dust, heat, cold, and constant vibration, and hood struts are right in the thick of it. This strut is built to handle the vibration, temperature swings, and dust that come with agricultural work, with sealed construction that keeps internal pressure steady so your hood operates the same way after seasons of hard use.

Installation Notes

Installation is straightforward—just remove the old strut and connect the new one to the existing mounting points, but always support the hood securely before removing the old strut, as these hoods are heavier than they look. Never try to repair a gas strut—they contain pressurized gas and need to be replaced as complete units.
