Is the prop rod in your car so rusty it won't move or is it missing? Are you tired of the trunk lid falling on your head or using a mop handle to hold the lid up? If so, here is the solution to your problems. This is a new replacement trunk lid prop rod kit for the 1964-66 Barracuda which had the spring loaded rod. This kit is NOT intended for the early 1964 Barracuda that had a different slider mechanism found on the passenger side of the vehicle versus the drivers side. For those cars or for any Barracuda's that do not have the "S" holes already in the trunk lid can retro fit our "B" type trunk lid prop kit (See Below). The strut selected for this application is properly sized to provide the correct lift force, lift height and compressed length. A dampened strut is used in this application to provide for reduced stress on the 60+ year old trunk lid hinges. The trunk lid must be raised by hand, with the dampened strut, but will stay open in any position.

Trunk Lid Prop Strut. Replacement strut only. This is the replacement strut for one of the kits we provide by itself without the hardware or installation instructions. This is only going to be beneficial for those that have had a replacement strut placed onto their vehicle already and have broken the unit / lost it / damaged it / or wanted reduced or increased strut rod pressure to hold the decklid up. Our struts are based on a 60 pound strut pressure and we have the option to increase or decrease that pressure from 20 pounds to as high as 150 pounds. Notify us at time of order if you are changing your strut because of wishing for increased or reduced strut pressure and what poundage you are seeking

Compatibility: 1964 - 1966 Barracuda Availability: 7 in stock
