Review on πŸš™ Rugged Ridge 11210.17 Jeep Wrangler JK Hood Catch Kit - Textured Black (07-18) by Jeff Westra

MUCH better than stock

'09 Wrangler. These are top notch locks. I highly recommend them. A knock: It's really inevitable, but the bottom half of the latch required some tricky work loosening the old one and installing the new one. This is exactly how Jeep designed the mount. You either need 7" long pencil-sized fingers with 6 knuckles, or you need to build a minijack with a short 2" extension that can be turned with a small wrench. to put the pieces of this socket assembly together, but it took a lot of experimentation, a few scratched fingers and some bending behind the headlights to get to that little nut on the back of the fender metal. Difficult but worth it The top half was a breeze. Great locking. Will definitely buy again but I only have a jeep.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • I don't remember
