Don's 35 Extended Build

[Lew]

Hey Mark,
I agree that you have it set up as per the manual. But for me it did not work for the reasons Don stated. My hood would only fit and work the way I sent you
photos of.

Thanks Don and Lewis..... I'll get it figured out.

one further question.... My lower radiator hose outlet hits the frame when setting on the chassis. Did you just pull up on the brackets that "slot" into the upper control arm bushing bolts to pick up on the radiator.... and/or remove some metal under the lower radiator hose outlet?

Thanks

Mark

Mark the Blue truck has the hinge mounted inward - the pic is a blurry I think ... my prototype on the original truck has it mounted like yours mostly. Basically you need to get the radiator and condenser as close as possible to the grill and then have the bracket installed.. keep in mind the brackets do get updated from time to time - but generally the install is the same

Thanks Erik.... Mine is like you have pictured above. I'll also add my setup is just like Walace18's build.... so I do think I have mine correct... but time will tell once I start to install/fit my Hood and it's Hinges.
