Description
The Altman Easy Hood Latch is a bolt-on replacement for the hood latch on 1947–1954 Chevy and GMC pickups. It installs into the radiator support and closes the hood the way a good door latch closes a door — no slamming, no rattling, no wrestling with a worn out factory latch.

- Built on the Altman Easy Latch system.
- Designed for the 1947–1954 radiator support.
- Complete bolt-on kit — no fabrication required.
- Closes gently, latches securely and holds firm.
- Replaces the bulky factory hood latch for a cleaner, more finished look.
- Raw steel.

Common questions
Do I have to cut or weld anything?
No. It is a bolt-on kit with no fabrication required, and everything needed for the installation is in the kit.
How do I know it fits my truck?
This part is listed for 1947–1954 Chevy and GMC 3100, 3800 and Suburban. The full year, make and model list is in the Truck Compatibility tab on this page. If your truck has been modified, or you are between two of the year ranges we list, send us the year, make and model and we will confirm the fit before you order rather than after.
What if it is not right for the truck?
You have 30 days from delivery to request a return. The part needs to come back new, uninstalled and in its original packaging - once a part has been trimmed or welded it cannot go back. Return shipping is at your cost, and we ask that returns come by Canada Post. Made-to-order, sale and clearance items are final sale. The full terms are on our returns page.
Can I install this myself?
It is designed for an at-home install. Read the fitment notes and the Installation tab on this page before you start for anything that needs drilling, trimming or welding, and where an installation guide or video exists for the part it is linked there.
