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

buildinga55 · 10-26-2010, 06:53 PM

I have read the posts and printed out the steps to adjust and align the hood. I am working through the process. However, I have a question. The body lines on my hood next to the cowl is pretty good, except the driver side is kicked out from the body about 1/4 - 3/8". Is there any good way to get this to fit better? The passenger side looks perfect. I tried shimming the passenger side hoping it would bring the driver side in some, but did not seem to help. Any ideas? Thanks
