Re: Hood Latch Help

It may just not be adjusted right then. Does the hood look like it has been on the truck all the time or has it been replaced?

Probably the best thing is to screw the latch screw/pin out several turns and when the hood latches and stays figure out how much you need to turn it back in to have it set right.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
