Rbailess Posted Friday at 01:25 PM Share Posted Friday at 01:25 PM (edited) Does anyone have a picture of how the original hood latches are. I had my truck painted and drivers side keeps popping loose. One has a wedge plate at the top. The paint shop installed new latches and i don'thave any pictures before taking it there. Thanks for any info or pics Edited Friday at 01:35 PM by Rbailess Forgot to and painted truck Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74782-1990-rd690s-hood-latches/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solution terry Posted 7 hours ago Solution Share Posted 7 hours ago Are you talking a wedge shape piece under the hook on the hood, I believe they were there to tilt the hook more so latch would not come unhooked.🤷♀️.

mowerman Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago Not sure who we’re talking to. I was talking about the bumpers on the fire wall, need to come up a bit or if it’s air ride cab rollers instead need to come up Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74782-1990-rd690s-hood-latches/#findComment-562465 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rbailess Posted 2 hours ago Author Share Posted 2 hours ago Thanks for all the suggestions after looking at it closely. The paint shop installed the new latch with that plastic wedge under the hook part upside down. I flipped it over and that changed the angle so it doesn’t pop open. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/74782-1990-rd690s-hood-latches/#findComment-562470 Share on other sites More sharing options...
