  • Hood latch adjustment

    Is there any way to adjust hood latch assembly? When hood is
    closed the striker on hood does not engage the lock mech of the
    latch assembly. The safety catch latches but it doesn't move
    the rotor of the latch which is free and moves with force but
    doesn't roll over in latch position. Thanks for the help

    Try some spacers (like washers) behind the latch mechanism, to move it a little forward.

      if you mean up and down then you can loosen it up and move it a bit. I had to do that with mine...worked great.
