Hi Gary, sometimes those get full of rust and just need to be soaked in penetrating oil and persuaded a bit.

Re: In need of a hood latch
I tried lubricating the bad latch but it didn't help. I am still in need of a hood latch if someone has one or a set.

I'm not sure if this is the one you need, I can't see what it looks like under the crossmember on my rig. But if it is, this is $20 with free shipping!

Re: In need of a hood latch
thanks for trying to help out - but I guess what I need is called a windshield latch? there are two of them, and they lay on the hood. So, when the windshield is lowered onto the hood it can be locked down so it doesn't rattle.
