harve the bonnet can be adjusted at two points.  One is in the front where
it is mounted, the other is on the two bushing thingys up towards the
windshield, those are easy and self explainable, as for the ones at the
front of the car you will have to remove your rubber overriders and the hard
foam behind them, you will then find two bolts on each mount that when
loosened allow about 1 1/2" in movement.  Hope I helped

Just noted this afternoon, that my radiator cap was "marking" the
underside of my bonnet. ('78 1500)

How can the bonnet be adjusted "up" to gain more clearance?  I don't see
how the radiator can be moved down!  :)

Tks for any insight!
