Good To Know

Q: How do I know this hood strut damper fits my tractor? A: This strut is designed for the Kubota models listed and cross-references to part number 3C001-83310. Confirm your machine's serial number range and existing mounting points before purchasing.

Q: What should I do if the hood does not stay up? A: Replace the old strut with this damper, as a worn gas spring loses pressure and can no longer support the hood. Ensure the ball sockets are firmly snapped onto their studs and that the mounting brackets are not bent.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
