Should be a simply swap.. but my hood latch isnt lining up
Any adjustments to the latch.... or ... some other place ?

You should be able to loosen the bolts and move it up/down to line everything up. You will also have to move the outer bump stops either up or down to line the hood up flush with the fenders. Everything should be the same between the two vehicles.

ThanksKyle
I found the left to right adjustment.. by taking the whole bracket off
and turning it over and loosened them nuts.. and got the hood to close and re
open better ~ ~ Darrell ~
