Small shock that holds up hood of McCormick/Farmall CT41 tractor

[HarleyRiders97]

Looking to buy a replacement shock absorber that holds up the hood of my McCormick/Farmall CT-41 tractor. It doesn't hold it up anymore. Any ideas would be appreciated! Thanks

I've been known to cut a stick or piece of irrigation pipe to the correct length when that happens to me. If that's not elegant enough for you try buying and installing a new gas strut. Yours is leaking.

Take the strut to NAPA or similar. They should be able to cross one

You may even find some of the info about the strut on body of it. There's usually some info there.
