Hood springs are a proven method for making the hoods on heavy-duty trucks more manageable. As the hood is opened the spring will help to slow the hood once it has passed its balance point. The hood springs prevent the hood from slamming open with its full weight and causing damage to the bodywork. Hood springs work in conjunction with hood cables to limit the full open travel of the hood to a position that allows the hood to stay open on its own but does not damage the hood or the bumper.
As hood springs wear, they may lose their strength and allow the hood to open more freely. This can put extra stress on the mounting points for the springs and for the cables. If the hood is caught by the wind and opened with great force it could cause some of these mounting points to be ripped from the truck. Over time metal fatigue will cause the springs to break and you will lose all assistance with the hood. Fiberglass may seem light but when something the size of a truck’s hood is being propelled by the wind and pulling you along, it is hard to slow it down.
Hood springs should be replaced before they reach the point of breaking and if you are pre-tripping your truck daily it will be easy to tell when the springs are wearing out. Besides the feel of the hood, an easy way to tell visually is if the springs no longer fully rebound when you are closing the hood. This will leave gaps in the coil when there is no weight on them. This shows that the coil is fatigued and can no longer hold the tension that it used to.
Finding replacement hood springs can be done using the OEM numbers for the original springs. On older trucks, it may not be as easy to get part number using the VIN, so it is possible to find some hood springs by measurements.
