Re: cowl hoods

I thought I might have to put one on my Cummins to clear the air intake horn to keep from putting a body lift on but it cleared by about a half inch. I dont mind them but like them better if they serve a purpose

Re: cowl hoods

My 2 cents if you need a new hood want to be different cant beat the goodmark hood ive got one on mine love it. I do think the ones the make for the square headlight trucks look alot more sexy then the ones for my truck but the trucks have slight slant that just set off the cowl.

That truck needs an 01 on the side and a bright orange paint job!
