    3 Cougar / 3 Mustang Applications

    Description

    This product has received the 'Crappy Product' certificate. Items that receive the 'Crappy Product' certificate are products that we carry for comparison purposes as they are often the version offered by other vendors or because it is the only version available. We would not be willing to use these parts on our own cars, and we do not recommend purchasing these parts. WE ARE NOT ABLE TO ACCEPT RETURNS FOR THESE PARTS.

    Reproduction hood hinge spring for all 1967-69 Mercury Cougars and 1964-70 Ford Mustangs. Common on many Ford and Mercury cars, this spring has 14 coils like the originals. We've found these springs to be of lesser quality than the originals, and they will stretch over time and not hold the hood up very well. We highly recommend you stick with original OEM springs. No returns on these springs.

    Replaces Ford part # C3OZ-16789-A.

    You can find the hood hinge apron nuts here.

    Anghel Restorations offers a very detailed breakdown of the differences in the Cougar and Mustang hood hinges.

    *NOTE* Not for use on 1970 Mercury Cougars, those had heavier hoods and use a specific spring.

    Check out our video below on how to replace the hinges and springs yourself, along with some adjustment tips:

    Cons:
    These springs look and fit fine, but are weaker than the originals. They don't hold the hood up all the way, and I discovered that they stretched out over a few months. I was able to remove them by hand by holding the hood up all the way and just removing them from the hinges. That shouldn't be possible. I ended up cleaning up some used originals, and they are FAR superior to these repros. Avoid these and stick with OEM.
