I know I have seen this thread somewhere before but can't seem to find it as usual. I need to know in what order the bumbers go on a 1952 F1 hood. Is it largest one near the cab or does it start the other way with smallest one near the cab. There are nine pieces so I would think four on each side and one in the middle on the hood in the front by the latch. As always thanks for the information on the subject.

I guess it would be a safe assumption that you have your hood on, I needed help please? I’m working on a installing the A/C evaporator brackets in my cab that is upside down at this time, it looks like the only place I can mount the bulkhead fitting for the cooler/ heater lines is at the very top right (passengers side) of the fire wall but because the cab is upside down I can’t see how much clearance there is between the hood hinge base (with the spring) mounted on the firewall and the outside seam edge of the fire wall / cab for the hoses. Would it be possible for you (anyone) to measure this, thanks.

 

It looks like 2" clearance between the seam and the hinge pivot.
