Hello all,
I am new to the forums but have read many posts on this site over the years. I just recently bought a 1986 ford 6710 diesel 4x4 with a western loader on it. I am trying to get all the fluids changed and am currently working on getting the air filter changed, and realized that (I know this sounds dumb) that I cannot get the front grille open to save my life. I feel like its right in front of me, but i can not open it at all. There are two rubber hook type things on the front, leading me to believe that all i would need to do is open those and it would fall down/open, but it has not. What am I doing wrong? Do i need to remove bolts somewhere? is there a magical elf hiding under my hood holding it shut? thank you in advance for the answer,and hopefully it is super complicated and you need to be a rocket engineer with 4 hands and be born on a tues to figure it out so i wont feel as bad.
