As per the attached picture I am trying to determine if this is a Big Bolt 1.5 /2 ton hood or one for the lighter trucks. I cannot seem to determine by just looking at comparable truck pics. For reference the tape measure dimension is 56" . Thanks in advance!
You need the side view of the hood A bit too much is out of frame of the image to tell The curvature at the back edges makes it obvious to the experienced eye. -s
Isn't the big bolt hood wider at the front? If you need it I can measure between the front corners of my "little bolt" hood.

Mike, I think you've got your answer, but measured my hood anyway. The front corner to corner measures right at 30 inches.
I'm not positive that's different than the big bolts, but the grilles are different in some way. I thought it was width.
