Description
When you’re checking fluids, changing filters, or doing routine maintenance, the last thing you need is fighting with a heavy tractor hood that won’t stay open. If you’ve been propping up your hood with a stick or struggling with a bonnet that keeps trying to slam shut, it’s time for a new gas strut. This replacement gets your hood opening smoothly and staying put so you can focus on the work at hand.
What You’re Getting
- Strong, reliable lift that handles the weight of your tractor hood without strain
- Smooth operation that lets the hood open easily and close in a controlled way
- Sealed construction that keeps working through all kinds of weather and conditions
- Direct replacement design that bolts right into your existing mounting points
- Proper pressure rating engineered specifically for these John Deere models
Built for Daily Farm Work
These gas struts are designed for the 50 and 55 series John Deere utility tractors that have been workhorses on farms for decades. Whether you’re running a 3050 for general farm work, using a 3350 for hay operations, or keeping a 2955 busy with loader duties, these tractors see regular maintenance that requires hood access.
Made to Last
Farm equipment gets used hard, and gas struts take their share of abuse from vibration, temperature changes, and constant cycling. This strut is built with quality seals and components that maintain their pressure and smooth operation season after season, even when your tractor spends its days in dusty fields or sits outside through winter.
Good to Know
Installation is straightforward – support the hood while you disconnect the old strut and connect the new one to the ball joint mounts. Most folks can handle this job with basic tools in about fifteen minutes. Just make sure to test the hood operation afterward to ensure it opens and closes smoothly through its full range.
