Bonnet Gas Struts for Cars, Vans and 4x4s

Bonnet gas struts, also known as bonnet struts or hood lift supports, help hold your vehicle bonnet open safely while giving you easier access to the engine bay. They are commonly fitted to cars, vans and 4x4s as direct replacement parts for worn, weak or failed original bonnet supports.

At AUTORCE, you can find replacement bonnet gas struts for a wide range of vehicle makes and models. Whether your bonnet no longer stays open, drops slowly, or feels difficult to lift, replacing the gas struts can help restore safe and convenient access to the front bonnet / hood area.

What Do Bonnet Struts Do?

Bonnet struts are pressurised gas-filled supports fitted between the vehicle body and the bonnet. Their main job is to assist with lifting the bonnet and to keep it securely open while you check the engine, refill fluids, carry out maintenance or inspect parts under the bonnet.

A working bonnet gas strut helps reduce the need to hold the bonnet manually. This makes routine checks safer and more convenient, especially when both hands are needed for maintenance or repair work.

When Should Bonnet Gas Struts Be Replaced?

Bonnet gas struts can lose pressure over time. When this happens, the bonnet may no longer stay open properly or may begin to close unexpectedly. Common signs that your bonnet struts may need replacing include:

The bonnet does not stay open on its own
The bonnet slowly drops after being lifted
The bonnet feels heavier than usual
One or both struts show visible damage or oil marks
The original strut part number matches a replacement listed product

Choosing the Correct Bonnet Strut

Bonnet gas struts can vary by vehicle model, body type, production year, force rating and open length. Even vehicles from the same model range may sometimes use different strut specifications. For this reason, we recommend checking the part number printed on your existing bonnet strut before ordering.

You should also compare the force rating, open length, fitting type and vehicle compatibility information shown on the product page. If your old part number matches one of the listed OEM or cross-reference numbers, this usually gives the best confirmation of fitment.
