General Information

The hood can be raised to a full-open position. Tilt-assist struts help to both raise the hood and lower it into the vehicle operating position.

In the vehicle operating position, the hood is secured to the cab-mounted cowl by a hold-down latch on each side.

In the fully open position, the right-hand locking hood strut should lock automatically to keep the hood open. See Fig..

To unlock the strut and lower the hood, flip down the lever located midway on the strut.
