I found that going "au contraire" worked for me.

I wedged the hood way up with a push broom sitting on the bumper. I then tightened the bolts. It fits dang good.

(I previously thought that weighting the hood down and tightening the bolts from the cab should work but it didn't. It always popped up.)
