ARANA Hood Struts OEM Fit for Ford F250 F350 Super Duty

ARANA hood struts are a pair of direct-replacement gas lift supports engineered to replace the factory hood struts on 2017–2022 Ford F250 and F350 Super Duty trucks.

These two-piece hood struts are built to match the original equipment fit and restore smooth, tool-free hood opening and secure hold. Manufactured from high-carbon Grade 45 steel with multi-layer chrome plating and filled with wear-resistant hydraulic fluid, they aim to resist corrosion, tolerate wide temperature ranges, and deliver long cycle life. They are sold as a set of two and designed to be installed in minutes using only basic hand tools.

Will these struts fit my Ford Super Duty truck?

ARANA struts are intended as OEM-style replacements for many 2017–2022 Ford F250 and F350 Super Duty models; they may also be compatible with certain 2017–2018 F450 and F550 trucks. Before buying, cross-check the part numbers on your original strut.

• Compatible with common OEM numbers: 4B965360, 4B-965360, 669930, 670169, 965360
• Also referenced as HC3B16C826AA / HC3Z16C826A / HC3Z 16C826B
• Verify match by comparing the part number stamped on your existing strut

How durable are these hood lift supports under real-world conditions?

They use industrial 45# high-carbon steel and multi-layer chrome plating to improve corrosion resistance versus plain steel struts. Filled with a premium anti-wear hydraulic oil, the gas springs are rated to withstand tens of thousands of compression cycles and maintain pressure across extreme temperatures.

• Durability designed for -40°F to 110°F temperature ranges
• Chrome finish and sealed construction reduce rust and oxidation
• Engineered to endure 50,000+ compression cycles without noticeable force loss

How easy is installation — do I need a mechanic?

Installation is intended to be homeowner-friendly: each strut replaces the factory unit using simple hand tools. ARANA supplies the pair preassembled for a fast swap, so most users can complete the job in around five minutes per side.

• No special tools or dealer service required—just a screwdriver or common wrench
• Step-by-step alignment mirrors OEM mounting points for straightforward fitment
• Save on dealer labor and get immediate usable results

What warranty and after-sale support do I get?

ARANA includes a 365-day support policy so you can contact the brand if problems appear after delivery. The offering is positioned to provide post-purchase assistance and address fitment or performance questions promptly.

• One-year customer support for defects or compatibility issues
• Clear return and contact options for quick resolution
• Replacement guidance available if you receive mismatched part numbers

Who this is for: If you drive a 2017–2022 Ford F250 or F350 Super Duty and need a cost-effective, OEM-style hood-support replacement that resists corrosion and temperature extremes, these ARANA hood struts are a practical choice. They suit truck owners who prefer a DIY fix to restore reliable hood lift without dealer markup, and anyone who wants hardware rated for high cycle life.
