Trd hood shake at highway speeds..anyone had or know how to fix?

My hood kinda rattles and shakes at highway speeds and I turned up the stoppers but anymore and it leaves a gap..anyone know how to stop this without looking like its had bad bodywork..

 

Is the hood latching tight and are all the rubbers and stuff that holds it on and firm attached?
If they are missing you will never get it to fit tight it will always rattle.

 

Yes..I've checked everything and anything even went around tightening everything most of it was already as tight as it would go..it seems to be mostly at the rear of the hood..but I will double check the rubbers she does have alot of miles on her so it couldn't hurt either way..lol..thanx

 

Unfortunately, more common than you would think. Some have resort to adding aftermarket latches to fix it.

Personally, if you notice that the rear of the hood is the issue, I would buy and cut a section of weatherstripping to add bulk to the rear to see if that helps.

 

Thanx..that link was helpful and now I have a few sections to observe on my rig..I do have a bug guard (installed before me)..also a whole lot of miles..lol

 

It's just flimsy metal trash that the hoods are made of and that theme is a reccuring one throughout the body of the truck. The hood lifts and shakes around because the wind which is pushing against it has a stronger force than the flimsy metal is capable of withstanding.

Hood latches, while one of the more nerve wracking and undesirable mods to do (for the very reason that it is nerve wracking) is a well worth it mod. Ever since I mustered the cojones to cut into the body I have been really happy with them since. It takes an extra step to opening the hood, but that makes it no different from the Jeeps and the Hummers that you see running around all over the place. They all use hood hold downs as well and for good reason.
