Thanks man. I’m about to replace the lifts on my 98 Acura CL. This helps

Thanks for the Video – great to know it is so easy. Off the the Auto Parts
store to get this fixed!

ProvenHelper says:

Probably 1, call the #Acura parts store to be sure..

ProvenHelper says:

Check more info under the video, I placed a link.

You’re welcome! I thought that it would be a hard job when I did it on my
Lexus, but it was much easier then I could have expected it to be 🙂

Thanks so much. Its the same exact procedure for the new body style
(04-08), and im sure its probably similar on newer Acuras/Hondas. Only
slight hiccup I ran into was putting the left gas shock on the right side,
so make sure you check orientation. Took less than 5 minutes. New shocks
are insane. I actually have to put effort quite a bit of force in to close
the hood new. I used Strong Arm 6351 (for an 04 TL) which i got locally
from advanced autos for 38$ for the pair.

This is an awesome video. Whole job took less than 5 minutes and I saved
$50-100 that the dealer wanted to charge. You rock!!!

ProvenHelper says:

Oops sorry about that. The #acura hood lifts are cheap enough, just buy
them and swap them out. There’s no point in trying to repair them. However,
if you do find a way to do it, I’d love to hear your story. #carrepair

is this part 74145-S0K-A02 come with 2 or just 1 hood strut?

BÃ¥rd Larsen says:

You are replacing the hood lift supports, not repairing them. I was looking
for the latter. You might wanna edit the title. Thanks for sharing anyway 🙂

Hey Every BODY 🙂 Check out my Lexus Street Race video that I posted on
10/14/2012. It’s between a 2006 Lexus GS300 and a 2012 Lexus ES350! hot and
very surprising at the end!
