Redline no drill hood lift / strut
Has anybody tried this yet?

Looks like it will be the lift to get, no drilling and the support were you want it.

Amazes me that it took this long for some company to come up with this slick of an install.
Just paint the lower bracket and it looks like a total OEM part.
And priced right too.

Reglular or Elite? The Elite's read like they'll stay nice longer, but they're kinds shiney and have Redline in pretty big letters on them.

Nice, thanks for the heads up! Also good call on CJ Pony Parts - saves a little over buying from redline directly (free shipping + 5% off with coupon EP1012)

These are better than the drill type. I still like the MRT's I have and see no issues with either one. I do prefer the way the MRT's tuck in close to the back of the hood area. Good to have quality choices.
