Hang the Hood with engine hoist
With the Covid distancing, I didn't want to invite son-in-law over to help install the hood on my Challenger. Wife has a weak arm so needed a way to handle the weight. That Chally hood is lot heavier than the Duster. Anyway figured balance point for the hood and hung on engine hoist. That way wife could jack-up hoist and roll it in while I lifted and positioned the hinge end. Worked very well and easy to move. Have to find the lazy man way to do jobs.
