Hood bumpers

I'm trying to get the hood aligned properly, and I think I need to put the rubber bumpers on to get the hood/fender gap right.

I found two different kits, LMC has this one https://www.lmctruck.com/1948-59-che...ber-components

and Ecklers has this one https://www.classicchevy.com/chevy-o...-339959-1.html

The LMC has 10 all that look alike, Ecklers has 6 thin ones and 4 thick ones.

Which one is correct? If it's the Ecklers, where do the 4 thicker ones go?

Detailed Description

Hood Bumper Set for 1947-54 Chevy Truck
Here you go Robert

Correct size rubber bumpers for cushioning hood. Complete set of 10 for front and sides of hood. 6 flat goes on the sides of the hood and the 2 large ones go on the front of the hood so it touches the hood latch panel.

Re: Hood bumpers

Jan, was there a link? If not, it looks like the Ecklers will give me what I need. Thanks.

Re: Hood bumpers

I dug out a latch panel that still has the big rubber bumpers on it. I think this one might be off one of the 4000 series trucks but the bumper location should be the same .
