Who has custom hood hinges?

Does anyone have custom hood hinges on their truck? Pictures would be nice, and what type of hinge did you use? Thanks

Re: Who has custom hood hinges?

I have a set from Ringbrothers. Bolted right on, hood closes the same every time. Priced kinda salty, but I got tired of trying to fit the constantly changing body lines.

Sorry no pics, camera batteries dead.

Holy schmoley!!!! Those are nice, but I don't think I can have a set of hood hinges that cost more than my seats...

Re: Who has custom hood hinges?

This is the best picture I have of my Eddie Motorsports Billet Aluminum Hinges with the Gas Shocks... When I get the truck back from Patterson Racing (getting the Final Tune done on it) I will get a better pic of it...

Reminds me of the hoods from the late 80's Buick LeSabres, they opened and shut the same way. I am guessing some of that was adapted to this hood!!!

Re: Who has custom hood hinges?

I actually have one of those hinges laying in my shop. But I did not get it until after I built this from scratch. I just thought it out and built it.....

Re: Who has custom hood hinges?

I have some hinges I bought on ebay from a seller called reneeslife1 which are the original hinges, chrome powder coated. They look great in my opinion. unfortunately these are the only pics I have right now, I'll try and remember to snap another later.

These are trunk hinges? I googled the part #'s and came up with trunk hinges.. also do you gotta run gas struts to keep the hood open? Thanks

Re: Who has custom hood hinges?

I just purchased a refurbished set as well from eBay - here is a pic. My friend also has a set like this, and they look awesome. Thought about the billet ones mentioned above, but they will not work in my circumstance with the heater box on the firewall.
