I think that one of my hood hinges is breaking. Not sure If this has happened to anyone else. When I close the hood the passenger side sticks up about 1.5". I"m just wondering if this could be fixed with a little welding or should I get a new hinge. As far as I can see the bolts that hold the hinge to the frame are still secure, but the hinge itself seems to be flexing. Any ideas would help out a lot.

I think what you’re explaining is the same thing that happened to me. What happened is the pivoting part of the hinge wasn’t pivoting, it was seized. And when i would close the hood the hinge part mounted on the car would bend up. What i did was spray WD40 on the pivoting part to unseize it. Worked like a charm.
yeah this is a common prob. Just get anoter one from the junker.
But try WD-40 first.
Andrew.
yeah just lube it up and u will be good 
very common indeed
lol… yeah i’ll try the lube first… if that fails then that’s one more thing for my list of things to fix…
thanks for the info

lube always helps smooth out the process.
