Topic: 34 Hood Hinge Screw Size


rbone    -- 01-28-2011 @ 3:04 PM
  Does anyone know the screw size for the 2-hole hood hinge on the top of the radiator? #10 fine fits, but is very loose, 1/4 is too large. Is it #12? If so, fine or coarse threads.

Thanks,
Ron

  it might be a 12/28 FORD used this SIZE,MODEL A'S used this size for floor boards and various other places.
I am assuming your car would have used,
try a tap to see how that fits the hole,
do you have any of the old screws to go by,
just be carefull that you do not resize the hole,
use caution,
my 3 cents worth, 37RAGTOPMAN

  To my knowledge they are 12-24. You can probably find them at Ace Hardware.
