Bought my first C2 a couple of weeks ago and have a hood fit problem, the hood fits flush @ hinges hut has a 1/4 in high at front is it a shim problem on frame or hood have restored older PU s with cab problems...newbee

 

Just a thought here .....place a sheet of cardboard on top of the aircleaner.
Set the hood down, and see if any marks are left on the cardboard. You might have clearence prob.
