Looking at purchasing and installing a tilt hood kit. I have found a couple, but am leaning towards the one sold by Midfifties.

Has anyone used the high end model, or are there other better quality ones sold by someone else?

Thanks,
Pat

 

I used the MMB kit from MidFifty.

 

CPP makes the one Midfifty sells

Classic Car and Truck Brake, Steering and Suspension Parts

Here's some instruction articles as well

Classic performance/ mid-fifty on mine. Still working great.

 

I bought the one No Limit makes , haven't installed it yet but looks like a great kit.

 

right.. there are two different approaches

1. the MBB type kit.. the rollers are on the hood and the ramp is on the body
2. the No limit kit, the roller is on the body and the ramp is on the hood.

depends what you are looking for as a result.

if u look at the MidFifty catalog page for "HOOD FLIP KITS"
they show you the difference by highlighting the parts..

As per what Sam says

 

Very satisfied with the CPP kit from Mid-Fifty that is on my 53 It withstood the 15K mile trip to AK this spring, so I think it'll be there for the long run
