Anyone know what would cause my hood (1953 GMC 3/4T) to hit the wipers when fully open? It actually hits the antenna first, but after removing that, it still rests against the wipers. Not sure if I need new hood hinges or if there is a way to adjust the stop point..

Thanks!

Here is the tech-tip for adjustment, I can tell you it is a two-man job for sure.

Thanks, I will give it a look. As the hood sits correctly when closed, I assumed that there might be way to limit the opening while up. As if I move it forward to gain clearance, I think it might have an "overbite".. Anyway, thanks again.
