Any suggestions on best way to store a hood? Don't want to warp it and it'll be off the truck for quite a while. Thanks.

I wouldn't worry about it, mine was off the truck for 15 years and thrown around a salvage yard before that. I would block it up under the center, right side up if you have the room or second choice hang it on a wall.

Some bike hooks in the ceiling, works great for fenders too.

Right now mine is hanging on the wall in my garage. I think it looks cool. It keeps it out of the way.

On the patio next to the BBQ .

And of course the bed goes on the Side yard
There never seems to be enough room.

Well maybe those are examples on how not to store it

These hoods are fairly stout it's more a matter of storing it so it doesn't get dented hanging or leaning on a wall is a good way to store one.
