Did you install new hinges or lubricate? I may have gotten mine from LMC or classic industries.
Hi, These are original hinges I bead blasted and painted. When I got the truck the hood barely stayed up on its own. I bought a set of springs and it seemed the same. I just ordered another set of springs OER brand and will see if it makes a difference. Thank You for the information. Steve
