Description
Metal fatigues and springs weaken, and a squarebody hood that will not sit square is usually the hinges, not the sheet metal. This CVF billet set replaces the factory hinges on 1973–1980 Chevrolet and GMC C/K trucks with machined aluminum bodies, gas struts and adjustment built into the hinge.
Features
- Patented (No. 11,002,047) 6-axis adjustment built into the hinge, so hood gaps can be set without removing the hood.
- Gas struts hold the hood open.
- Sealed bearings at the pivot points.
- Bodies and arms precision machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum.
- Backed by CVF's limited lifetime warranty.
Choose your option
- Finish: polished aluminum, C-3 ceramic clear coat, Stealth Black or Black Diamond.
- Hood: steel or fiberglass.
- Slosh Tubz variation: yes or no.
Fitment notes

The 6-axis adjustment is built into the hinge itself, so hood gaps get dialed in with the hood still bolted on.

Common questions
Do I have to modify the hood or inner fenders?
No. They mount at the factory hinge locations, and the adjustment is built into the hinge itself, so the hood can be set without stacking shims.
Do they hold the hood up on their own?
Yes. Gas struts are part of the hinge assembly, so the hood stays up without a prop rod, and the pivots run on sealed bearings.
Does it matter if my hood is steel or fibreglass?
Yes. The gas struts are matched to hood weight, so choose the steel or fibreglass option at the top of the page to match the hood on your truck.
How long is the lead time?
Around 7-10 days on the standard finish. Ceramic clear coat, Stealth Black and Black Diamond are finished to order and can run 4-6 weeks. They carry CVF's limited lifetime warranty.
How do I know it fits my truck?
This part is listed for 1973–1980 Chevy and GMC Blazer, C10, C20, C30, Jimmy, K10 and others. 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.
