Hood Latches Aluminum Hood Catch Replacement for Jeep Wrangler JK/JKU 2007-2017, JL/JLU 2018+ & Jeep Gladiator 2020+ with Painted (Black,1 Pair)

Very high quality

These are awesome and easy to install! Like them a lot more than factory! They seem very strong and built extremely well.

Están padrísimos, se sienten muy ligeros y se ven muy robustos, van muy bien con el estilo del Jeep, muy recomendable, la instalación para el JK si es un poco compleja, tuve que desmontar parrilla, pero quedó genial. Muy recomendable llego un dia antes de lo programado.

Excellent produit et le look est super sir mon Jeep. Assez simple an installer avec un peu de patience, beaucoup plus stable que le système d’origine. Toutes les composantes sont en aluminium ou en acier inoxydable donc rien ne va rouiller

They look great and work well on my jeep

So first off I wanna say these things are beefy and look great!! Definitely like the look over stock and plus it keeps the hood from doing that vibration crap when on the interstate. Ok now onto the good stuff. 1- when you are removing the old latches, the 4 nuts that hold the hook clips to the hood in place.. save those. 2- those nuts I told you to hold onto ( that's what she said) you are going to use those for the actual latch mechanism that takes the one nut. The nut they supply is ok but the factory one is the same thread pattern and has the washer built in so way faster and more secure install. Also if you don't have one buy a swivel head 1/4 ratchet. I supplied a pic of the one i used. Keeps you from getting your fingers from getting chewed up as much. 3- when installing the new hooks on the hood pay attention to the slope of the hook itself. They slant just a little. You are going to want the higher end of the slant to point towards the windshield. This will allow the hood to properly close and keep your body lines straight. Also when you are installing those bolts into the hook locks use loctite to keep them from backing out. Don't want your hood flying up because the bolts backed out. 4- last but not least DO NOT TIGHTEN EVERYTHING DOWN AT ONCE!! Snug your bolts up and then lower your hood to adjust. This latch assembly has 3 main points of adjustment. You have the base, the snap, and the pin. If you don't get the first two correct you will find yourself forcing the hood pin in and that's not good because it can and will bend your hood and fender if you try to Mongo the pin in place. Other than that install on this was a breeze and took about 45 minutes ( trial and error which is why I wrote this review)
