Bend down, fish it out, prop it in place, and pray it does not slip while your head is under the bonnet. Bonnet struts replace that whole routine with two gas-charged struts that hold the bonnet open on their own from the moment you lift it. Both hands free. No more leaning over with the rod between your teeth. No more risk of the bonnet dropping while you are tinkering with the oil filler or topping up washer fluid. It is a five-minute job that changes how you work on the ute forever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cem\u003eRATED FOR THE FULL BONNET WEIGHT\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach strut is gas-charged and rated to hold the 79 Series bonnet in any open position, including the heavier facelift bonnet on the GDJ79. The mounts are stamped steel with stainless hardware to handle the temperature swings and vibration of daily driving and off-road use. Installation uses the existing factory mounting points on the bonnet and inner guard. Bolt the brackets in, clip the struts on, and it is done. No drilling, no welding, no custom fabrication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cem\u003eSEPARATE KITS FOR VDJ AND GDJ BONNETS\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis collection includes bonnet strut kits for the VDJ79 V8 (2007 to 2023) and the GDJ79 2.8L facelift (2024 onward). The bonnet shape and mounting points changed with the facelift, so the kits are platform-specific. Each listing confirms the exact year range before you order. The same kits also suit the 76 Wagon and 78 Troopy of the same era because the bonnet design is shared across the 70 Series body styles.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"70-series-bonnet-struts","title":"70 Series Bonnet Gas Struts (Pair) (2007 - 2022)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bonnet Gas Struts (Pair) is an easy to install modification to add to your 70 Series LandCruiser (75, 76, 78 and 79 series 2007-mid 2022 Pre-Facelift) for an easy one-touch lift to access to your engine bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"a-unordered-list a-vertical a-spacing-mini\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"70 Series Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41584148873400,"sku":"70SS-7SBG-07-23-BL","price":97.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/0754\/5784\/products\/70-Series-Bonnet-Gas-Struts-Pair-2007-2022-70-Series-Store-29080717656248.jpg?v=1750381608"},{"product_id":"2024-70-series-bonnet-gas-struts-pair","title":"70 Series Bonnet Gas Struts (Pair) (2023-Present)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Bonnet Gas Struts (Pair) is an easy to install modification to add to your 70 Series LandCruiser (76, 78 and 79 series 2023-Present) for an easy one-touch lift to access to your engine bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"a-unordered-list a-vertical a-spacing-mini\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"70 Series Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50884746281144,"sku":"70SS-7SBG-24-BL","price":127.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/0754\/5784\/files\/70-Series-Bonnet-Gas-Struts-Pair-2023-Present-70-Series-Store-53600936951992.webp?v=1750381358"}],"url":"https:\/\/70seriesstore.co.nz\/collections\/79-series-land-cruiser-bonnet-struts.oembed","provider":"70 Series Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
