If the body lines between the hood and the fenders line up, adjust the latch. If the body lines don't line up, adjust the hood at the hinges then adjust the latch. Had to do it on my buddy's cervini hood also.
What have you done to your powerstroke today?

i had the body shop align it all, and it shut fine with the stock intercooler, this new alradco is MASSIVE, i need to grind away the hood where it's touching i'm pretty sure. or drop the intercooler down a 1/2" i'll figure out something....

Might want to get in touch with them about this just as sort of a heads up. Atleast you have a solution. Just make sure not to grind through the top of the hood.

Did you take a bfh to the intercooler mounts on the bottom to drop them a hair or to your hood? Because mine is fiberglass so no hammer but a grinding wheel will do wonders.

The area that i need to grind away protrudes out quite a bit for probably no reason....

Haha no that would take way too long. I dropped it off it at my powdercoaters and i think they acid dipped it and then powdercoated the bumper and tow hooks gloss black for me in 1.5 hrs none the less and they were extremely busy, and had lots of other stuff to do too... Only cost me 160!! For that price how could i go wrong...

Structural I'm sure. They wouldn't do it if it wasn't for a reason. Just be careful closing it And with snow load on it.

Installed 4 old school JL 8w1's and an amp on Saturday. Gotta pull the box out when I have time and cover it in suede

It's the best lol. I really need to get that box wrapped in suede so it doesn't look like a bag of dicks anymore

I want to try to find factory carpet to wrap the box in. I love those seats. Anytime my truck goes somewhere with a group of people I don't drive, I sit my azz in the back.

That's dumb. Front seat is more comfortable....

Back seat needs an arm rest on the seat. I just like being chauffeured around in my own truck too. Makes me feel important and like I have money. Lolololol.

As much as I love rear buckets, I've been thinking about swapping to a bench
