Re: EMS Billet or Siscos Hood Hinges - Any pictures installed?
Now are the gas shocks going to supply any more lifting power than the factory spring hinges?

Re: EMS Billet or Siscos Hood Hinges - Any pictures installed?
Installed my hood strut kit last night. EZ PZ install. Took me about an hour. I was also aligning my hood & latch set-up during the install as it has been off for a while after the motor swap. If everything had been already aligned, I prob would have gotten it done a little quicker.
Excellent alternative for those that can't utilize OE hinge springs on their 81-87/81-91 trucks/blazers/burbs....

Re: EMS Billet or Siscos Hood Hinges - Any pictures installed?
They're just some old aftermarket 16" 'star' wheels (Prime or Eagle maybe?) w/a lug cover. I just DA'd the snot out of the fronts to remove some nasty road rash & then used progressively higher grade paper. They just have a scotch-brite finish @ this point.

Re: EMS Billet or Siscos Hood Hinges - Any pictures installed?
Oh yeah they will lift the hood just fine, infact it is a good idea to keep the palm of your hand on top of the hood when opening so you can control how fast the hood will lift.

Re: EMS Billet or Siscos Hood Hinges - Any pictures installed?
That's the WAMRODS kit. It the same one I have had on my truck for 5 years with no issues. Good cheap alternative to factory. But will work with what ever drop you are running and whatever custom inner fender you are using also.
