Here is the procedure I went through today to align my hood. It's the simplest I've seen but there are additional issues that have to be addressed if what I've written doesn't fix your alignment issues. There are instances of the cab being out of line, far too complicated for me and an issue with the fenders needing to be lowered, addressed by 52Carl and his procedure.
Ric, good attempt, but you'd get a D-minus for organization: Your outline numbering is messed up - there's no 1 but there's a 2. Also you reference a Fig. 2 but it's MIA.
But maybe you can blame that stuff on Carl.
