I am going to buy a set of firewall hood hinges for my 67 C-10 soon. I know of 2 pretty reputable places that look like a good product,
Porterbuilt
https://pbfab.com/1967-72-chevy-truc...s-gas-assisted
and
Switch Suspension
https://switchsuspension.com/gm-c-10...assist-struts/

Both are the same price, so this isn't going to be a deciding factor.

In your experience, were there any issues with the products that you have used?

Can either of them be used with a factory heater shroud in place?

I have heard of Northwest Chassis Worx, https://www.facebook.com/nwchassisworx/ but I am having a hard time contacting them for information.

Do you recommend any other company that has these style of hinges?
