Hey fellas, Happy Holidays.

I've been noticing the hood likes staying up less and less and today I whacked my head on it pretty good. I don't know if this is a common issue on these trucks , mine is a 1971, is there a replacement spring or springs that fit and work? Thanks.

I would say it is a spring issue but can't say that there is a factory replacement available.

You may have to just take one & find something close in length & tension from a hardware or supply store.
