I have pins also (Quik Latch). I wanted more insurance as I have a large scoop and I believe my car is more than capable of 160+?All my Mopars have hood pins . I removed the safety latches on all of them . One less thing to bump my head on.
My steel hoods retain the primary latches in addition to pins. Only the safety latches were removed . My 'glass lift off hood is pinned only and I quickly learned that if the front pins aren't located in the right spot that the front of the hood will try to peel back. Ended up adding two more up front.I have pins also (Quik Latch). I wanted more insurance as I have a large scoop and I believe my car is more than capable of 160+?
