Decent hood latch locks? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*Zkast* · 10-06-2002, 10:29 AM

I'm looking for a way to lock my hood (short of installing a release cable from a newer vehicle). A few years back I saw one of our trucks in the shop that had a lockable release pin latch, Just a add on unit that used a pin and anchor to lock the hood. You could also lock the handle from inside. I wouldnt mind one if those (installed in the glovebox) or has anyone else come up with a different idea?

All that engine and no lock makes me VERY nervous!!!

I can get you the super security hood lock kit for about 25.00.
This kit is secures the hood using a set of barrell locks mounted to a chrome plated housing. I know the Jeep Wranglers have a lock out kit that works with the hood latch but I'm not sure it would work on our trucks.
