Hood Latch - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The Hogdoctor · 05-06-2008, 03:23 AM

I have taken off my hood to paint the inside and fix some of my dents.
I removed the latch that holds the hood down and after cleaning the grease off it I noticed that the spring was broken that holds the hood down tight. I have had problems in the past with the hood trying to open going down the road and opening half way.
I have tried to find this spring or another latch everywhere but no help.
Can anyone tell me where I can get one or a repair on the spring latch.
