68 to 70 hood fitment
Posted: Thu Sep 15, 2016 6:50 pm
Hey y'all, got a question on weather or not different hoods from different years can swap. I have a 68 swepty that the hood lines up and fits well. I have a clean 70 hood that I want to swap out(I prefer the 69-71 hood shape). My shop that I have do work on my truck couldn't get the 70 hood to line up at the cowl(sticks up at the rear). I've read about the adjustments needed to fix that issue but he original hood doesn't have that problem and now I'm wondering if there is something different in the hinges or hood between the years that's causing the issue. Any one got any ideas or info that might be pertinent? Thanks.
