One man auto hood remover tool (and how to remove a truck from a hood) :)

One man hood remover tool:

This is modeled after one I saw on youtube that a company sells so I can't take design/idea credit for it. I'd rather make my own stuff and I like doing everything myself, hate asking for help when working on my cars/trucks. I used it a few times so far and it works great! It simply bolts into your engine crane where the chain normally would be. When not in use, it folds up too!









And now: How to remove a "truck from a hood": (since anybody can remove a hood from a truck) lol

Photo/step 1: Position one man hood remover in place and put a little upward pressure on it. Remove all hood bolts.

Photo/step 2: Tilt hood back and tie in that position.

Photo/step 3: Remove truck. (you could leave the truck and roll the hoist if you prefer)
