Re: In cab hood release
Hey all - I put in a one piece cable - cab to front - very similiar mounting - everything moves EXCEPT when the hood is shut. I welded the two "arms" together so there's only one "release". I backed out the hood pin almost to the point that my body lines are off. Everything is lubed. I broke the tip off the main release spring (to relax it more) - I took off the small spring in the release.
ISSUE - I have to stand on my tip toes, hold the pull handle with both hands and throw myslef into for all I'm worth aaaaannnnnndddd - ugh, it pops! Any suggestions?
