Ram 3500 Hood
The Ram 3500 Hood is the heavy-duty truck's hinged cover that protects the powerplant but allows for easy access for routine checks and repairs. This Hood is made of tough steel, light aluminum, or weight-saving fiberglass. Thus, the structural strength allows for controlled crumpling, so in a crash, the energy is absorbed before it reaches the vital engine parts. Over the years, the Ram 3500 buyer has only witnessed small styling changes. Yet every Hood version maintains two core aims: to protect and provide access. They open forward on sturdy hinges, closing flush to ward off rain and road debris. Every Ram ensures that the latch is simple and secure, allowing effortless opening. The Hood framework possesses carefully stamped reinforcement ribs that stiffen the panel without adding superfluous weight to the current 3500 line. Having at their disposal a good sightline toward the engine allows Ram owners the ability to confidently check fluid levels or inspect belts. Drivers appreciate that exchanging a damaged 3500 Hood is just a matter of bolting one on and therefore safely and easily restores the original fit, finish, and crash performance.

Ram 3500 Hood Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q:How to properly remove and install hood on Ram 3500?A:Use blankets or pads to cover the cowl area of the body and Fenders to protect the body and paint as the hood is lifted off. Make marks or scribe a line around the Hood Hinges to ensure proper alignment during installation. Disconnect any cables or wires that will interfere with removal. Have an assistant support one side of the hood while you support the other. Simultaneously remove the hinge-to-hood nuts and lift off the hood with the help of an assistant. Installation is the reverse of removal. Fore-and-aft and side-to-side adjustment of the hood is done by moving the hinge plate slot after loosening the bolts or nuts. Mark around the each hinge plate so you can determine the amount of movement. Loosen the bolts or nuts and move the hood into correct alignment. Move it only a little at a time. Tighten the hinge bolts and carefully lower the hood to check the position. If necessary after installation, the Hood Latch can be adjusted up and-down as well as from side-to-side on the radiator support so the hood closes securely and flush with the fenders. To make the adjustment scribe a line or mark around the hood latch mounting bolts to provide a reference point, then loosen them and reposition the latch as necessary. Finally, adjust the hood bumpers on the radiator support so the hood, when closed, is flush with the fenders. The hood latch assembly, as well as the hinges, should be periodically lubricated with white, lithium-base grease to prevent binding and wear.
