billet hood hinges C10
 

Does anyone have a recommendation for good Billet hood hinges that are reasonable priced ?

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

Eddies motorsports make a great billet hinge for c10s.. I can pm you a price if interested.

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

yes please do.

Is there a less expensive way to get my hood to close better? Already tried working on the original hinges and now I'm running aftermarket ones.

I order mine from Willie!
Powder coated and new rivets and they work great. These are not billet but they are very nice factory hinges that work.

Andy how long have you had them on your truck and do they work as good now as when you first installed them? I have checked with Willie about having mine done ( one loose rivet so hood doesn't close properly) and he seemed like a great guy and I thought his price was extremely reasonable.

They are about 4 years old now and work fine. I spray them with lube every now and then!
One day maybe I will brake down and buy the billets!:chevy:

After reading this I decided to look for the billet hinges again. So what I found was some very high dollar stuff like I did last time I looked @ several $600.00 hinges then I came across these. Has anybody used a set of these yet?

These are listed on EBay.

Thanks Andy. Those Billet Hinges look like the ones Eddie MotorSports sells and Summit has them.

I'm running Ring Bros. air frame hinges on my '69. They are really nice and the hood closes very smooth. They weren't 'cheap', but for the quality & looks, I guess you could say there were reasonably priced.

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

Those are both good looking hinges, but has anyone ever had problems with those hydraulic struts? I myself do not like them, as in hatch and hood cylinders.
The old school the hinges wear out before the springs. Guess it's about looks though. Just sayin'

Could you quote me a price for 70 C10 Suburban please.

Thanks!

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

Wow! Those are actually affordable. I hate dropping $650.00 for hood hinges but I like things that have lasted the test of time. Eddie Motorsports and Ring Bros definitely work but are you just paying for the name?

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

Pretty much I would think.
I looked these up on e bay and they are over $600.00! so at the Friday price I'm thinking real hard on them.
Have until Monday to buy them too!

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

The ones pictured in your Ebay link are from Eddie Motorsports. The previous hinges you posted a photo of from Rusty Nutz are not Eddie Motorsports. Ringbrothers are having a 15% off sale from Friday to Monday. That makes their hinges like $585.00. That's a little better but you then have to pay shipping.

Re: billet hood hinges C10
 

Yes I know this, and the Rusty nuts are free shipping.;)
