  1. Proper aftermarket hood latch ?

    That is stout. I cant tell if it has the rest bumper part.
  2. Proper aftermarket hood latch ?

    I guess the Combat ones dont need the hood rest at the latch?
  3. Need a replacement hood latch

    What about the built in hood rest thats part of the latch. I tried the Rugged Ridge and it did not support the hood.
  4. Proper aftermarket hood latch ?

    Im not sure how to explain what I have, maybe my 2020 is different. My latches have a rest built in that the hood comes down on. I have tried several aftermarket brands like you suggested and I couldn't get it to be solid. Ill post my picture again and circle what Im asking. Yes, I can tighten...
  5. Proper aftermarket hood latch ?

    Ill look at those dont really need the lock, thanks. I understand the solutions to critters, need to find a repair for the jeep. Again our JTs need the brace/rest behind the latch which eliminated most aftermarket.
  6. Proper aftermarket hood latch ?

    I am looking for some proper aftermarket hood latches for my 2020 JT. Have tried the usual sources that say JK, JL and JT are the same but they are not. Our JTs and assume JL has a hood "rest" built in. This rest give something for the latch to tension too. The several brands I have tried did...
  7. Piecing together a good 2 inch lift.

    Keep meaning to update on the lift. Everything works and drives well except for one issue at higway speed. If I go over a bump like an expansion joint there is a short oscilation of the steering wheel. Not in anyway like death wobble, but similar to the wobble when it first starts. I have not...
  8. Piecing together a good 2 inch lift.

    I got her done as per my plan. Everything worked well other than getting the control arms torqued to specs, lol. I went with Fox 2.0's as it's almost exclusively street driven. Im very happy with the mopar front springs/ Icon rear spacers. The stock Max Tow springs balance well with the Mopar...
  9. Piecing together a good 2 inch lift.

    OK, update on parts purchased. Got the front mopar lift springs w/new isolaters, lower arms, rear sway bar extensions and rear bumpstop spacer (have a front already). I also ordered a JKS front adjustable trackbar, front extended swaybar disconnects, Icon rear coil 1.38 spacer, and Terraflex...
  10. Piecing together a good 2 inch lift.

    They are different part numbers from the stock ones so must be something. Not real expensive so will probably get them.
  11. Piecing together a good 2 inch lift.

    Looking at the Mopar lift parts list. Do I need to get new front bottom spring isolators. I understand replacing things while your there, but my current ones are fine. Didin't know if there was something special about those in the kit. Thx
  12. Aftermarket hood latch doesnt work

    I dont see how you can get proper tension on the hood without the little hood rest. I looked at the video and there is nothing supporting the outer edges of the hood? I bought hinges from Extreme 4x4 and to tighten it down enough for the latch to not vibrate, the hood was almost touching the...
  13. Aftermarket hood latch doesnt work

    The rubber pops off, but it has to have something to mount to? Most aftermarket latches are meant for a JK which has a hood rest seperate from the hinge. Im not sure how everyone is doing this without realy warping the hood.
  14. Aftermarket hood latch doesnt work

    Yes, the rest is part of the lower assembly. The other pic is the varmit damage.
  15. Aftermarket hood latch doesnt work

    As far as I can tell they are part of the assembly
  16. Aftermarket hood latch doesnt work

    Thats the old one, The buffet is on the top of the latch out of view.
  17. Aftermarket hood latch doesnt work

    I circled the stock hood rest that is part of the hinge. Most aftermarket hinges dont have that. Without it you have nothing to sinch the hood down to. Imallcrawl, the hinges you showed look like they will work, but I dont need a lock.
  18. Piecing together a good 2 inch lift.

    They fit well, haven't rubbed yet. A 2 inch lift would make it look great.
