Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
Hi guys. I’ve been looking but can’t seem to find this small part for the hood cowl. It’s the rubber clip that attaches the cowl to the cab. Anyone know where I can find this or have a few extras they can sell me.
Here is the picture for reference. It’s for my 83 c10 Thanks Paul Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
I was just out in the pic n pull yards Saturday. I knew there was something I needed to try and get. These things are hard to find. And I told myself the next time I was in the yards I would try and get some. Dang it! And there where 4 trucks, a lot was picked over, but I’m sure I could have gotten some.

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
Just to follow up on this thread. I figured out a good solution. I bought some 4mm self tapping screws. I cut the screws to the length I needed and screwed the cowl pin to the cowl. It worked perfect and is very secure. You will also need to trim the "arrow" looking piece at the top of the pin since you now have the self tapper coming from the bottom up.
Another benefit to using the self tappers is you can leave them a little loose, then you can adjust the placement of the pin while it is on the truck, then you can fine tune the place of the cowl. Paul Last edited by 44boggers; 05-02-2021 at 09:22 AM. |

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin

The cowl is attached to the firewall area just with screws. Or what exactly are you referring to? Attach a picture please. |

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
So my body guy who abandoned the job mid way through apparently removed and lost these pins from my cowl. I ended up finding a mint used one that still has them. Is there anything supposed to be in the holes in the cab where these push into, or do these just push straight into the cab holes?

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
44boggers, that is what I was looking for too, do you by chance know what kind of screws (type, size, length??) are used to attach the cowl to the firewall? mine were missing when bought the truck - luckily I have all the pins as mentioned above. hoping to not have to by expensive screws from LMC if can be helped..

I will measure them for you and send a picture. But they are not anything special. |

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
I know this is an old thread, but for anyone that’s still looking. I have a buddy that parts trucks and literally saves every usable part.

Re: Hood cowl rubber attachment pin
I guess I got lucky. They are all still attached and in good shape on my 84 Sierra 2500.
