Re: Getting hood hinge springs back on.

I don't have a hay hook. I use a loop of 1'' nylon tubular webbing like climbers use, and make a 3' long sling. I hook one end of the sling on the spring hook end, put one foot on the front bumper and lean back, pulling on the spring and putting the spring onto the upper hinge notch.
