Im after some bonnet struts to suit 07 liberty. Anyone know where they can be purchased from? Ideally, no drilling required.

i think this has been done before... there is no straight fitment item available you'd have to mod something to do the job... i think there was one forum member who did this..
try a search.. its been asked a few times before

the only car ive seen it on so far is the bi-turbo 3.0R-B (at least i think its a bonnet strut, eitherway the hood has been modified to open higher). The BULLIT. Look for DeMobBoss.

You do know that you can open and brace yours to around 90 degrees with the standard bonnet brace without any mods don't you?

Yeah, i've sent RPA a number of emails trying to either get a price for a group buy or just single purchase and no response.
I'll give the other mob a try.
