Got a problem need to find out how to deal with it
So I put my "new" hood on my truck today and when tightening up the bolts one of the "nuts" broke loose and now I can't finish tightening it. Any ideas on how to get to it with out messing up the hood????

I would use a small die grinder with cutoff wheel. I wouldn.t use a sawzall type saw.

Re: Got a problem need to find out how to deal with it
If you an loosen the bolts and remove them, try Permatex U-weld epoxy to glue the nut back in place. We did this on a Crown Vic hood and it worked well.
