c10 hood struts?

Right now my burban has the hood hinges without the springs, i got a 2 foot piece of 1 1/2" square tubing for a hood prop. I'm buying a gutted burban for windows and some other stuff, and the dude said he has the hood-stays-up hinges, but said the spring would probably hit the tire. Anyone done this before? I heard they make a strut kit for these extremely heavy ass hoods, does anyone know where i can get one? Or can i just buy some heavy duty struts off ebay? Thanks in advance for the help.

they're like 4x4 tires, they're 285/45/20 which makes it great for me since i'm wanting to run 22's.
