Although Revain said they will fit a 1995 Ford Explorer they will NOT fit

Guess I should have trusted the seller's description and not the Revain manual which told me it would the right replacement for my 1995 Ford is Explorer. They are the correct length but have a 1/4" ball end on one end and the 1995 model requires a larger 3/8" ball end on both ends. So they didn't fit. Revane, why don't you make sure these items are the right size?

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Good but not great

SLOW DELIVERY - slow replacement

A post was stuck in the open position and I even tried to push it through with a zip tie but it froze in place. Waiting for replacement

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Nothing here

Less than three months failover support

Easy installation. Proper hood next. Since installing the supports, I've only had to open the hood a couple of times. Today I lifted the hood for the first time in two months and the props are already dead. They now provide no hood support and have been completely phased out. They failed sometime between week 2 (last time I popped the hood) and week 10 (today). I received defective supports. They are made in China under the TadaMark brand. I don't recommend you to bet on them because they are…

  • Best
Cons

Read the review before you buy

The lift cylinders were the same size as the stock cylinders and were easy to install. I noticed that the cylinders don't give the same lift pressure as the OEM cylinders, but they have enough pressure to hold the hood open. When I opened the hood a few weeks after installing the new cylinders, they both made a loud "squeaking" noise, like there was no grease on the shafts. I applied a light coat of white lithium grease to both and it silenced them just long enough to raise and lower the hood…

Pros
  • great product
Cons
  • Something different
