Hood Hinge
Nearly every car and truck on the road today has a hood. It's necessary in order to gain access to the engine to perform inspections, maintenance, and repair. The hood also covers the engine bay, protecting it from water, snow, ice, and other elements that could cause damage or trouble. To allow easy access, hood hinges are used. These pieces of hardware allow pivot and swivel points so the hood can be raised and lowered. Over time from age, use, and corrosion, hood hinges can fail, requiring replacement.
When selecting a set of hood hinges for your vehicle, first confirm the year, make, and model. Next, if the hood is made of fiberglass and was originally steel, note that the hood hinges may need to be different to ensure damage doesn't occur as well as proper operation. From the remaining compatible options, choose the hinge set that meets your application needs and budget.

Each hood hinge is made from high-quality components and assembly to provide long service life and proper opening and closing of your car or truck's hood.
