59 fleetside hood hinges
hood hinges are loose. when under hood the just arent tight enough to hold the hood up. already replaced the springs but that didnt help.

Re: 59 fleetside hood hinges
did the same with mine. New springs did not help.
Best thing I did was buy a repop set no more troubles. You can get the originals rebuilt but it can be expensive.

Re: 59 fleetside hood hinges
This is temp fix if you have torches heat at the swivel points until cherry red and blandish them with a 5 pound sledge against a solid metal surface, it works til you can afford new ones. I think if you post on the other section you might get more responses then the build section.
