TECHPICCO Hood Struts are a no-drill gas lift replacement that swaps your Tacoma/4Runner factory prop rod for smooth, secure hood support and easier engine access.

Designed specifically for Toyota Tacoma model years 2024, 2025, 2026 and later plus Toyota 4Runner 2025 and newer, these hood lift supports convert the manual prop rod into a clean, gas-assisted system. The bolt-on kit uses factory attachment points, installs in under 30 minutes, and adds a durable under-hood finish while improving convenience during maintenance and inspections.

How do TECHPICCO hood struts make opening the hood easier?

Replacing the stock prop rod with gas struts lets the hood rise effortlessly and stay open without manual support. The pressurized cylinders provide a controlled lift and steady hold, reducing the need to fumble with a rod while working on the engine bay.

  • Smooth gas lift for single-handed hood opening
  • Consistent, secure hold throughout the opening range
  • Reduces wear on factory hinges by controlling motion

Will these fit my Tacoma or 4Runner without modification?

Yes — the kit is engineered for a direct bolt-on fit for Toyota Tacoma 2024–2026+ and 4Runner 2025+ models. No drilling is required because the brackets attach to factory mounting points to preserve hood alignment and structural integrity.

  • Vehicle-specific bracket geometry for accurate fit
  • Uses OEM attachment points — no new holes
  • Installation time typically under 30 minutes with basic tools

What materials and finishes are used, and will they resist the elements?

TECHPICCO hood strut brackets are formed from 3mm carbon steel and finished with a two-stage satin textured black powder coat. That construction provides a robust, scratch-resistant surface that helps prevent rust and stands up to everyday garage and trail conditions.

  • 3mm carbon steel brackets for strength and rigidity
  • Satin textured powder coat for scratch and corrosion resistance
  • Durable gas cylinders rated for repeated cycles

What's included and how does installation work?

The package contains two hood rods (gas strut assemblies) and a complete hardware kit with brackets and fasteners. The bolt‑on design lines the brackets with factory holes, so you simply remove the stock prop rod, fit the brackets, mount the struts, and torque the supplied fasteners to spec.

  • 2x gas hood rods (struts)
  • Complete hardware kit with brackets and bolts
  • Straightforward installation using common hand tools

Who this is for: TECHPICCO Hood Struts are aimed at Tacoma and 4Runner owners who want a cleaner-looking under-hood area and easier engine access without modifying the vehicle. If you perform routine checks, work on your truck, or prefer a more refined, reliable hood support than the factory prop rod, this no-drill, heavy-duty upgrade is a practical choice.

FAQ
