There’s nothing worse than your tractor hood popping open or rattling around while you’re trying to get work done. A loose or broken bonnet catch not only creates annoying noise but can also damage the hood if it flies up unexpectedly. This 2-piece catch kit gets your hood secured properly so you can focus on the job at hand instead of worrying about loose bodywork.
What You’re Getting
- Complete 2-piece catch mechanism that secures your hood firmly in place
- 2 1/2 inch size designed to fit various general purpose tractor models
- Durable construction built to handle the vibration and stress of daily farm operations
- Direct replacement hardware that restores proper hood alignment and closure
Built for Real Farm Work
This catch kit fits general purpose tractors that handle everything from hay operations to light cultivation work. Whether you’re running around the farmyard with a loader or heading out to check cattle, these tractors see daily use in all kinds of conditions. A secure hood keeps engine compartments protected from weather and debris while reducing cab noise during operation.
Made to Last
Farm equipment hardware takes a beating from constant vibration, temperature swings, and exposure to moisture and chemicals. These catches are built to handle those conditions without loosening up or corroding. The reinforced mechanism won’t bend or break under daily use, and the finish resists rust and corrosion from exposure to fertilizer, road salt, and weather.
Installation Notes
This is a straightforward replacement that typically takes 30-45 minutes with basic hand tools. The two-piece design gives you both the catch mechanism and strike plate needed for a complete repair. Apply a dab of grease to the catch mechanism during installation for smoother operation and longer life. You’ll appreciate that solid click when closing your hood—no more bungee cords holding things together.
