Overview

When the hood on a 579 starts drifting down on its own, the gas struts are finished, and a hood coming down on a shoulder ends a shift in a hurry. This heavy-duty Hood Lift Strut distributed by FleetPro Parts & Tires puts the lift and the hold-open force back into the Peterbilt 579 hood, replacing weak or leaking units that have made the hood something nobody wants to stand under. Built by Automann to Fleet Standard specifications, it is stocked right here in our Hanover Park, Illinois warehouse for lightning-fast shipping to fleets, diesel repair shops, and owner-operators nationwide.

The Right Length, Both Ways: The 923mm Hood Strut Advantage

This strut measures 923mm extended and 630mm compressed, and both numbers matter. The extended figure sets how far the hood opens and where it stops; the compressed figure decides whether the hood closes flush instead of riding on a strut that has bottomed out. It uses the 14x28 3-spring gas strut construction and weighs 4.9 lbs. This is an application part for Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks, so check the extended length against the strut you are pulling off before you order.

At FleetPro Parts & Tires, we know a hood strut is a safety part before it is a convenience part. This one is a direct replacement for highly searched industry numbers including Peterbilt L71-6019 and L716019, and it crosses to Stabilus 710085. It is stocked and sold under Automann distributor number A99619.
