Hood shocks for cheap

[HIDPLANET]

I ran across www.liftsupportsdepot.com and ordered a pair of supports for the Supra hood. There is a 10% discount right now and their prices are MUCH cheaper than the dealership. Dont really know how long they will last but it seems better than using pep boys ones which will fail in a few months.

I already ordered so if they fail quickly (I dont expect them to) i'll let you guys know.

That is a good price. $18.50 each for the two for the hood. I think I paid $35.00 each for mine about six months ago.

sure that isn't for mkii?

I got mine at AutoZone almost a yr ago. They are still holding up :naughty: Ran less then $18 each normal retail. http://autozone.com/servlet/UiBroke...7.99|~Toyota|~Supra|~1989|~LLT|~0.91|~NONE|~B

I bought mine through O'reilley's for about $19 ea. Their regional warehouse is here in town, so I could probably get as many as needed. I have had them on both of my cars for about a year without any problems.

Not to steal the thread, but thought i'd just ask if they'd work on a JZA70. I'd imagine so cause the body isn't much different.

i got mine on ebay for about $30 shipped..

installed in less than 5 minutes, and the hood opens itself after i lift it gently, it's so high-tech..

[Big Wang Bandit]

~$130 (EACH!) or so when I checked a few days ago at the local dealer - he said he could let me have them for ~$85 each though :stickpoke . According to him, it's not just Supra hood shocks, they're expensive for pretty much all Toyotas. I bought mine from AutoZone, $19.99 ea. iirc, and work just fine.

if by not much different you mean the same, then yes the JZA70 isn't much different.

Go ask how much the rear supports are for a 4Runner at the dealership. It'll make you feel good about how cheap the Supra ones are, hahaha.

It's worth it if is last another 15 years for me... I've heard the autozone and other cheapies only last 2 years

 

[HIDPLANET]

Right. If they last that long its worth the money for sure. The cheaper ones only last a few years at best.

 

[swaq]

I got AutoZone ones four years ago and they're still holding up fine.

You people are not understanding how much use the engines give in a 2 year time. Compared to a new car, they work a lot harder.
