Hood Props
What are you guys using for a hood prop?
Setting the wing on the cowl does not seem very stable, is there something on the market to hold the "wings" while working under the hood

These are being repoped. I used them on my 40 and they work great. I think i paid about $100 2 years ago on flea bay.

Re: Hood Props
They do not look heavy enough, are they sturdy enough?

Re: Hood Props
lets just say I deleted my answer because it won't work on hoods that open from the side.

Re: Hood Props
The dodge hood props work great. They hold the hood sides just fine and fold down nicely and don't move.
