You will need to install the upper radiator baffle. You do not need to install the latch to the upper baffle, in fact I recommend that you do not. I went to a lot of trouble in creating a write up on how to adjust the hood and adjusting the front clip, but have lost it due to a hard drive crash. I used the Factory Manual as a guide, but changed the wording used to what I can understand. Several on this site have found it to be helpful. I am certain that it is in the archives somewhere, but I am too stupid to find it. Hopefully someone will come along with better search skills and find it for you and post it here.
52 Carl - I previously copied your written procedure ( in 2019) into a word document and saved it to my files . I've read it several times and struggled with "starting from scratch" and in particular the shimming of the inner fenders to the radiator support to get the fender skirts / fenders correctly positioned without having the hood installed and aligned properly. I'm attaching your write up and yes it is very good. Thank you for posting it. I hope you file this well written procedure in a safe place. Thanks again for your help. Ron
