loco~ The only thing I can think of is I have the 3/4" stand off on my hood mount and that will give more leverage when open. I did not do anything to my stops but I can not remember if I have the rubbers in their or not. I will find out Sunday because I will be setting my front end on my Blazer. I have alot of cleaning up to do around here since my Dump runner has been down for a face lift

I wasn't saying that I thought it was a crappy way to go about making the hood open I like being differnet and doing things a different way so I was just being curious.
Thanks
