and BAM! Hood is mounted. The motivation is real. This hood hasn't touched the truck in at least a year and a half and hasn't been able to actually open since I bought the truck.
The Switch Suspension hood hinges are crazy smooth, the shocks are great at lifting the hood properly and they also can be parked at different lower heights, which is a plus for shows. I placed the hood between the fenders and all, with gaskets, bumps and stoppers in place, and pulled the inner fenders to tack weld the brackets in place. I then took it back off, and put the hood on a workbench and welded them in solid. I did end up shimming them some to get the line up better, overall I am pleased with the final product.
If you want to see them in operation - I posted a video on my Instagram & Facebook.
