I wouldnt mind finding an answer to that one either, but what I want to know is who knows the guy that knows how to install an pneumatic lifter rod to replace it? I have the hook up from my company (we produce industrial wastewater equipment with lots of fabricated steel tanks with air strut rods to lift the heavy steel covers up off the steel tanks so parts arent a problem, perhaps a DIY project for someone who has the time to write it up after they do it?

I wanted to know because I just installed a GRIP of that silicone hose into my engine bay but I can't get it onto the hood rod. I kinda spliced the hose and fit it around it for now, it's not noticable but I still should do it right once I know how to get the rod off.
