Dodge Neon QuickLIFT for 1995-2005 model years
The stock prop rod is the one item under the hood that most people find annoying. It is always either in the way or just plain difficult to use quickly and easily. Replace the stock hood prop rod with the hood QuickLIFT from Redline Tuning and end the frustation.

We have spent a lot of time where it counts, designing and testing our products. Since we are crazy about quality, you can rest assure that the QuickLIFT designed for your Neon is the best out there! Special attention to detail and perfect strut placement allowed us to create a much needed mod for your Neon.

Our QuickLIFT kit moves the hood lift pivots close to the hinge, freeing up valuable access to the engine bay and keeping you from the painful falling hood when you accidentally bump the prop rod from it's mount! Modify your Neon today and throw away your prop rod for good.

The gas springs included in the QuickLIFT kit are custom high strength steel cylinders (black in color) with Nitride coated black extending struts and include black end fittings.  

Review the pages below for details on the QuickLIFT kits - differences between standard and Elite, as well as detailed component descriptions.

Not all parts included are shown above
Note:
Pre-1998 Contours have a slight variation in the installation.  There is ridge on the fender lip where the lower ball-stud is to be mounted that isn't present on newer Contour models. This lip must be flattened or compressed in the 1/2" location where the lower ball-stud is to be mounted. This is a simple procedure, but is required for a proper installation and only on pre-98 Contours.
