73-77 & 78-80 HOOD PADS ARE VERY SIMILAR BUT NOT INTERCHANGEABLE. CHECK YOUR HOOD BEFORE ORDERING. THESE HOODS WERE SWAPPED OUT OVER THE YEARS. Other manufacturers INCORRECTLY sell this hood pad for all 73-80 trucks.
See the 2 pictures showing the difference between the 73-77 and the 78-80 hoods to be sure you are selecting the correct hood insulation.
73-77 hoods have just 3 holes down the center of the hood. The center rib is flat.
78-80 hoods have of 3 pairs of horizontally aligned holes down the center of the hood. The center reinforcement rib that was added in these later hoods is about 4" wide and sticks out from the bottom of the hood about an inch. ALL NEW AFTERMARKET HOODS ARE THE LATER 78-80 STYLE.
NO RETURNS SO READ THIS INFO (I MADE THIS TEXT AS BIG AS I COULD) AND LOOK AT THE PICTURES BEFORE PURCHASING.
AND NOW WE HAVE ALL THE S$%&Y CHINESE HOOD PADS FLOODING THE MARKET UNDER A DOZEN BRAND NAMES. tHE ONES WITH MULTIPLE PICTURES OF TRUCKS, DIMENSIONS AND POORLY WRITTEN ENGLISH. WHAT INFERIOR, LOW QUALITY PRODUCTS. I BOUGHT ONE TO SEE WHAT THEY WERE MADE OF. DO YOU SEE FOLDED INTO A TINY PACKAGE WITH CREASES IN FLIMSY, FELT LIKE MATERIAL. REALLY?
This is our own, reverse engineered, created in CAD and die cut. This piece has perfectly cut edges. The shape is perfectly symmetrical. Made from automotive spec dark gray fiberglass insulation with BLACK fiberglass scrim / matt facing insulation pad insulates heat transfer to the hood and well as reducing sound/noise.
Also our hood pads come rolled in a box not folded. Folded hood pads are wrinkled and tear at the folds during storage and shipping.
Note: This is NOT a molded hood pad like the original. It is a nice, inexpensive functional equivalent. See attached photo of pad installed on a 77 hood.
Materials
Automotive spec black matte faced, gray-black insulation.
