Wildman - You are the one to teach me more. What is the purpose of the added hood pins? I have always found the stock ones work great. Thanks
Safety.....
I have a 1997 TJ but the hood was from a 99 or 2000. The secondary latch on a 1997 was in the grille and would catch a hole in the hood. On late 1997 & newer they switched to the secondary latch being on the hood & catching a hole in the grille. So since I don't have that secondary latch anymore I wanted/needed something for safety. Hood pins do that,
The added PLUS of these hood pins are that they lock. Protects the stuff under the hood.
FIFY....

Ever see a TJ take a hard roll? The first thing that usually happens is the hood flys open. Preventing this is the main purpose of the pins.
If I were to roll over the last thing I could care about is my hood.

Been puking for the past 1.5 days... Daughter started a new job and must have brought something home with her...
Hoping I'll be better tomorrow since I'm finally starting to feel better now.
Really want to get this done. New sensors will be here tomorrow afternoon. So should be taking it for a road test Wednesday.
You don't have morning sickness do you..??
You haven't been careless have you..??
Will the mount work for you?
Well as always what you find on the internet isn't always the correct item.
The crankshaft position sensor I'd found as being the correct one isn't.

But I've got the correct part # now off the sensor so I'll order it.
UGH!
