The 1958-1974 Chevrolet Car & Truck 3" Hood Latch Pilot Bolt with Hex Nut is a direct replacement component designed to ensure secure and reliable hood closure across a wide range of classic GM vehicles. Measuring 3 inches in length, this pilot bolt threads into the hood latch mechanism and guides the latch into locked position when closing the hood. Manufactured from durable steel and finished for corrosion resistance, it includes a matching hex nut for proper adjustment. Ideal for restorations or repairs, this part ensures proper hood alignment and consistent latch engagement.
Installation:
Difficulty: 2/5 – Easy installation with hand tools; no modifications required.
Remove the old pilot bolt and clean the latch assembly area. Thread the new pilot bolt into the hood latch base and adjust it to the correct height. Secure it with the included hex nut, then test hood closure to ensure proper alignment and smooth latch engagement. Adjust as necessary for optimal fit.
