I'd like to help but I have no idea as to what you are talking about.

[moneymanager]

Nor do I. Why not get another nut?

[HawgRyder]

Captured or welded in nuts?

this is the nut that goes inside lid i think they might slide a little up or down for hood adjustment they bolt to the hinges

I think the loose nut is the one behind the steering wheel.

hello again and thx for all your help but i solved the problem i drilled thru the other side of lid and put a number 10 bolt thru and caught it under the lid right thru the hinge perfect drill first time with a big washer and nut now i have the right amount of bolts holding the lid down above the motor again thx for all your help i dont know what i would do if not for pelican

[Oh Haha]

Glad to hear that you solved the problem.

I hate to even ask but......


What do you mean you "drilled through the other side of the lid".

All I can picture is a large bolt/washer protruding through your hood looking completely hillbillyish.(No offense to any hillbilly Pelicans that may be reading this thread, of course.)

I replied early in the am and was not back on Pelican until the evening so I just now saw your responses to the other posters.

Again, I'm glad you were able to solve the problem.

LoL...Careful what you get yourself into, Wayne

[930 slant nose]

[James Brown]

Are you babling about the hinge bolt that attach the engine lid to the hinges? if yes then choose 2, If not choose 1, if neather, choose 3.

After reading all this, I STILL DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT.

But I'll try and tackle this problem nonetheless...

Step 1: Like mentioned before, Your typing is HORRIBLE!
Please use the shift key on your keyboard to type capital letters for each beginning of a sentence.
Consequently, use a point ( . ) to indicate the end of each sentence.
If you type all sentences directly one after the other without indicating beginning or ending it kind of makes it difficult to read and understand what your problem is in the first place.

Please apply step one in this thread but also in ALL future posts you intend to make.

Step 2: it is always good to post pics as an extra aid. A pic says more than 1000 words (10000 if you type like you do....)

We would like to help but you make it kind of difficult.

Please tell us you did not drill through your decklid... Pics please.

Is your problem solved or not?? In one post you say it is and in the next it isn't anymore.....
