The VIM Tools V387 Adjustable Hood Holder provides a simple and effective way to keep hoods, doors, or trunk lids open during repair or body work. The telescoping design adjusts from 28 to 46 inches, allowing technicians to set the ideal opening angle for access. The large end of the column rests on a stable surface while the smaller rod positions securely under the panel. With a 50 lb maximum capacity, the V387 is intended for light duty support and is not designed for heavy structural loads. It is a practical tool for collision repair, part replacement, and general automotive service tasks.
