Fiberglass Hood Install

Recommended Posts

I just received my fiberglass SS hood from 280Zone and I have some questions about mounting. I am planning on mounting it with the hinge up front and pins in back. I was told by some guys I work with that I dont want to just drill holes in the fiberglass for the hinge bolts because the constant wind buffering over time will wallow them out, but that I should sleeve the holes and use something like JB weld or silicone on the sleeves to keep them tight. My question is if I do that where do I get my adjustability to get the hood sitting just right?

I'll send you some more detailed instructions. However, my hoods are designed to allow you to drill through the hinge tabs, (they are solid fibeglass tabs). For adjustment you can enlarge the holes and add a large washer.

 

Hopefully this will make more sense when you get the email.
