Hood Rubber Stops
Can anybody tell me how I fit these?
I know they fit on each outer corner at the front of the hood but I cant figure out how and there were none fitted originally do Ive nothing to go by. It would seem the small buts go through the hole in the centre of the rectangular buts but how do they go together on the hood? |

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
Is that the bumpers for the front or rear of the hood? If they are the rears, they are riveted. Fronts are screwed on.

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
Front. The rears are already riveted back in place.

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
I've never seen round ones for the rear of the hood. Mine were a rectangular fiber type that riveted to each side.

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
I never could figure out what the round ones are for, I'm sure someone else here knows.

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
My fronts use the screws with the hour glass type head on it.
Rears are riveted. Those round ones, no idea. I just replaced mine and had the front, rear, and those round ones in the kit. |

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
the ones with the hourglass head are called clutchead. Hard to find a bit for those.

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
The rear are pop riveted in place though the new ones are rubber, not fiber as the originals were.
I think I will just rivet in the front as well, seems a whole lot easier. Got a set of the clutch head bits from LMC or Classic Parts a while ago. Actually not used them yet! |

Re: Hood Rubber Stops
I guess the round ones will remain a mystery.
