Aeagle Hood Lift Supports Gas Struts for Ford F-150 2004-2008 & Lincoln Mark LT 2008 — Pack of 2, OE Fit

Aeagle hood lift supports are replacement gas struts engineered to lift and hold the hood securely on 2004–2008 Ford F-150 and 2008 Lincoln Mark LT models (pack of 2, part 4153).

These hood lift supports (also called gas springs, struts, or shocks) restore smooth opening and steady support to your truck’s hood. Manufactured to match OE fit and operation, this two-piece kit replaces worn or failing pistons to eliminate sagging hoods, difficult lifting, and unsafe propping. The parts carry reference numbers 4153 and SG404075 for cross-reference when checking compatibility.

How do these hood struts improve everyday use?

Replacing weakened or leaking hood supports makes hood opening predictable and reduces the effort required to lift the hood. Once installed, the gas springs hold the hood securely at full height so you can work under the engine without fiddling with a manual prop rod.

• Provides smooth, controlled hood travel from closed to open.
• Maintains steady hold at full extension for safe hands-free access.
• Reduces wear on hood hinges by controlling motion and shock.

Will these fit my vehicle and how do I check compatibility?

These lift supports are designed specifically for Ford F-150 model years 2004–2008 and Lincoln Mark LT 2008. Use the part numbers 4153 or SG404075 to verify fitment against your vehicle’s OEM replacement list or consult a parts specialist with your VIN for confirmation.

• Compatible models: Ford F-150 (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008).
• Also fits: Lincoln Mark LT (2008).
• Cross-reference: part numbers 4153 and SG404075 for exact-fit checks.

How difficult is installation and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward for DIYers familiar with basic hand tools and simple clip removal. The design mirrors factory attachment points so these struts slide onto ball studs or clip brackets—no cutting or drilling required. Usually the swap takes under 30 minutes for one side when you follow safe support procedures.

• Typical tools: flathead screwdriver or trim tool and a pair of gloves.
• No special hardware: fits factory ball studs or original mounting brackets.
• Installation tip: support the hood during replacement to avoid injury.

What durability and performance can I expect from Aeagle supports?

Aeagle manufactures these lift supports to meet demanding automotive use, using sealed gas and corrosion-resistant components to extend service life. While longevity varies with environment and use, they are built to restore reliable lift force and reduce noisy or jerky motion associated with aging pistons.

• Sealed gas cylinder design for consistent pressure and smooth operation.
• Corrosion-resistant finish to withstand road and garage conditions.
• Treated end fittings for secure mounting and reduced loosening over time.
