Keep the hood up and your hands free with the Tuff Support Hood Lift Support 610220. This lift support installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 2003-2011 SAAB 9-3, taking over the job of holding the hood open at a safe, steady height whenever you're working under it.
- Purpose-built job: supports the weight of the hood and holds it in the raised position, so it stays open on its own instead of needing a prop rod.
- Direct-fit replacement: designed to swap in for the worn original on the listed SAAB 9-3 application.
- Common wear part: over time and with temperature swings a lift support can weaken and lose its holding force — this replaces the failed unit.
Signs this part may need replacing include a hood that drifts or slams down on its own, one that no longer stays fully raised, or a support that feels weak and requires you to hold or prop the hood by hand. If a worn hood lift support is the cause, this replaces it. Many hoods use two supports; check how many your vehicle uses and replace them together for even, balanced holding.
Manufacturer part number 610220.
