On the 1st gen Rangers, is there a hood spring that lifts the hood ever so slightly when you pull the latch in the cab?
On my 87 (which was wrecked and then butchered together and prettied up by the previous owner in less than desirable ways) when I pull the hood release, the hood does unlatch, but it doesn't raise up a little to get your fingers under it.
I broke a hood "bumper" the other day and it got me to thinking about this issue. I still need to pick up another adjustable bumper to install, but if there's supposed to be a spring to raise the hood a tad then I'll pick that up as well.
Does anyone have any pictures that show what I'm talking about?
