I bought a new hood and j-hooks from OEM and painted and now trying to install is there a trick ?? For the life of me I cant get hood to go on right the hooks I have moved from side to side and still not latching hood securely.

Some have indicated that relocation of components for OEM sheet metal fit is needed. If it is way off, I think a call would be in order. In truth, IH made the latches with a large margin for error. and a mediocre fit at the front and rear was normal.
Measure the length of the original hood from side to side with a tape measure, and compare them to the OEM. If they are within a quarter inch it will probably be able to be made to work. If more, I would be irritated. Jim

Thanks for the reply hood fits great looks original !!!But the real big but is the j-hooks they are lacking in quality as is OEM in quality control to say the least !!! Decided to use my old hooks and with a little tweeking all is well.

Thanks Dustin
