Suburban hood spring
#3
No, everything seems to be there. I had a break job done and somehow it was off when I got it back. Of course they "knew nothing about it". Which they certainly must have since the hood will fall down on you without having both hinges working. Meaning of course that the guy couldn't figure out how to get it back on. There's no way a person can pull the spring 3/4 of the way around by hand but there must be some method........ ?

Nobody ? Hundreds of youtube videos on the subject but not one about this type of spring. Am I going to have to buy a spring & hinge already assembled and then search for the videos of how to install that safely ? Normally on these forums this would be the point at which twenty guys chime in with info like "I don't know about that but my uncle had a Studebaker that was green". Oh well, I guess better to get no reply than the silly stuff.
