ARANA Hood Struts for Dodge Ram 1500/2500/3500 (2009–2020) — 2-Piece OEM-Fit Gas Lift, Chrome-Plated

ARANA hood struts are OEM-fit gas lift supports engineered to replace the factory steel-hood struts on Dodge Ram 1500, 2500 and 3500 models from 2009–2020, restoring smooth, reliable hood opening and holding.

These two replacement hood lift supports are built to match common factory part numbers and deliver dependable, all-weather performance without the dealer price. Constructed from Grade 45 high-carbon steel with multi-layer chrome plating and premium hydraulic fluid, the pair offers long wear life and consistent force across extreme temperatures. They are sold as a 2-piece kit intended to swap directly with the original struts on compatible Ram trucks.

Will these struts fit my Dodge Ram model and trim?

ARANA supplies this kit to match the most common factory strut references for Ram trucks. Before ordering, confirm your truck’s current hood strut part number to ensure a direct fit and proper mounting geometry.

How durable are these hood lift supports in extreme weather?

The struts use wear-resistant hydraulic oil and mirror chrome plating to resist leaks, rust and pressure loss across temperature extremes. They are designed to operate reliably from very cold to very hot climates without premature failure.

• Rated to perform between approximately -40°F and 110°F.
• Multi-layer chrome plating helps prevent corrosion from road salt and humidity.

How difficult is installation—do I need special tools or dealer service?

Installation is straightforward and can be completed in about five minutes using common hand tools, so you can avoid dealer labor charges. The struts use the same ball-stud mounting points as factory units for quick, tool-minimal replacement.

• Quick swap design uses existing hood ball studs—no drilling or cutting.
• Install with a screwdriver and basic tools; no professional mechanic required.
• Includes two complete struts to replace both sides at once.
