Now that the grill is restored and a new (off junker) "nose" piece on truck, when looking at the truck there is a gap between the "wing" off the hood and the nose. Any thoughts? New hood hinge? Brace up hood hinge? | | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 888 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 888 | Didn't happen on mine but think there is only a few adjustments. I would check the shims under the radiator mount. You may gain some movement/adjustment there. Also on the V piece connected to radiator and firewall you may have some adjustment in and out. Hope this helps. Have fun and good luck
