[Shotimes] Re: hood strut relocation kit for strut tower brace

[Ron Childs]

When my hood struts were bad for a while, I used a baseball bat. I couldn't get it to hinge but with the weight of the hood, I doubt that wind would blow it out.

I may got that route. The prop rod isn't bad, I just don't care for
something that can be easily dislodged.
