Hood not staying open - Strut replacement?

[wonkawonka]

Hello, I searched the forums but couldn't find anyone with this problem (which surprises me - I must be bad at searching!).
My '05 engine hood is barely staying open, and generally drops back down after a few seconds. The lift strut isn't holding it up properly any more. What would be the solution to this problem?
Is the lift strut fixable? I assume it's just much easier to replace the struts. The docs don't show a part number for them unfortunately.
Thanks, and merry xmas to all!

do a search for Nota4re, he has replacement struts for the clamshell, and the frunk, easy to install, last longer and are less expensive, and easier to obtain than OEM

Search for "strut".

Just bring a bungee and always park under something low enough to hook to

It's a Ford, no need to open clamshell. Nothing fits in the frunk so no need to open it either!
