Hood Insulation

Has anyone here use the under the hood insulation kit that LMC offers? I am thinking about getting it for my truck hoping it would cut down the under the hood noise. Hate to buy it if it doesn't really work.

Thanks.

Re: Hood Insulation

Never considered it. I see no need. Is your truck so noisy under the hood you can hear it come inside the cab from outside?

I thought about it. Decided to remove the hood, clean up the rust and peeling off paint, repaint and install new foam in the supports. I like the look of the frame and don't want to cover it up.

Re: Hood Insulation

The noise is normal and expected but could always use improvement.
