Front Hood Lift Supports for Porsche 911 996 Boxster 986 96-05
Say goodbye to stubborn, drooping bonnets and restore safe, frictionless access to your engine bay. These front hood lift supports are precision-engineered replacements designed specifically for the Porsche Boxster (986, 1996–2004) and Porsche 911 (996, 1998–2005). Constructed from sturdy metal with a durable black finish, each unit delivers a measured 560 N eject force, securely holding the front flap open while extending to exactly 225 mm between centre mounting holes. When original gas struts lose internal pressure after years of thermal cycles, these aftermarket alternatives return reliable lifting performance without dealership markups.
Benefits & Practical Tips
- Eliminate bonnet sag that can obstruct road visibility or cause sudden downward movement when working under the front cover.
- Designed for direct replacement—bolt into existing chassis brackets with zero drilling or structural modification.
- Wipe mounting surfaces clean and lightly lubricate the ball studs before fitting to reduce initial stiffness and protect against corrosion.
