Are you tired of reaching around the prop rod to tighten up the header bolts, or running the back of your head into the prop rod when working on your Mustang? Eliminate the hood prop rod today with a hood QuickLIFT system from Redline Tuning. Most Mustang owners spend a lot of time in the garage installing countless after-market parts which require a ton of time under the hood. We have carefully engineeried a hood QuickLIFT system for your Mustang that will eliminate the need for the prop rod.  

We include only the best components, custom designed for your vehicle. All of our hardware is produced to our exacting standards and this results in a smooth operating, easy to install hood QuickLIFT system. Two custom gas springs will lift and raise your hood from mid-height, holding it securely open. The benefits are endless and you will gain a lot of room to work without the prop-rod in your way.  The hood will slowly raise over the final inches, allowing a smooth and safe opening for all types of hoods - we support stock hoods, SMC, fiberglass, carbon-fiber, Aluminum, basically any material.

Customer Feedback:


I just finished installing the hood lift on my 94 Mustang GT Convertible. I can't stop opening and closing it!!

I received my Quicklift order for my 1990 Mustang recently in the mail and installed it myself on Saturday. What a great product! Awesome. Absolutely one of the best investments I've ever made on my car. Took me quite a bit longer to install than was indicated in your manual, but I got it done and done right. No more crappy prop rod. Still getting used to it not being in my way as when I was putting the hood-bra back on the car, I moved around the engine bay as if the rod was still there.

Thanks again and I'm looking forward to doing business with Redline Tuning in the future.

- Bill Meyar (91 Mustang)


"Finally, someone creates a the ultimate mod! Nice job! I love these things - they make me smile each time I open up the hood!  Thanks again.
- John T. (93 Mustang)


"Incredible! Easy to install and something that should have come from Ford on my car! These things are highly recommended - instructions are the best I've seen in aftermarket products. Thanks guys!"
