Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing or maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20-plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts installed correctly: that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.
In this video we'll be showing you hood lift support strut replacement on this 1997 Expedition, same as any '97-'02 Expedition and '97-'03 F150. You have a sliding hood on your Ford Expedition or F150, and rather than trimming a piece of wood, this is actually a really easy problem to fix. You just need to replace the lift cylinders. You can buy them at 1A Auto, and I'm going to show you real quick how easy it is to install them.
You'll pry out a little clip with a small screw driver. Pull that out, that's really all you need. With that clip out of the way, you can remove it, and then take a little one. It's the lower clip. Pry it up out of the way. There's your old support strut off.
Here's the original strut and here's the new strut from 1A Auto. You can see it's all the same. It's going to mount in the same. Put the bottom on first and then that's on there. That's all set. See? It works great.
We hope this video helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet. Please feel free to call us toll-free, 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the Internet and in person.

No idea. I have a F150. It would not surprise me if the Expedition has the same hood, but I would have no way of knowing that for sure.

Weve got a 1999 Expedition and they are the perfect replacement for OEM hood lifts. Super easy to remove the old and swap in the new. Just make sure you adequately support the hood with something or someone during the transition from old to new. Just one wont hold it up. Have fun!
