Description

Nothing’s more frustrating than fighting with a broken hood latch when you need to check fluids or get to the battery in a hurry. If you’ve been using pliers or a screwdriver to wrestle your Ford’s hood open, this replacement knob and nut set will make those daily maintenance tasks simple again. Just twist the knob and you’re in—the way it was designed to work.

What You’re Getting

Complete knob and nut assembly that threads properly and stays put
Correct grip design that works even with greasy or gloved hands
Durable construction that won’t strip or crack under daily use
Corrosion-resistant finish that holds up to weather and farm chemicals

Built for Real Farm Work

These Ford tractors—from the compact 2600 up through the powerful 7600—are the backbone of countless farm operations. Whether you’re running a loader, pulling implements, or doing maintenance work, you need regular access under that hood. A working latch knob makes routine checks of oil, coolant, hydraulic fluid, and battery connections quick and easy instead of a wrestling match.

Made to Last

This isn’t some flimsy hardware store substitute. The knob provides solid grip even when your hands are muddy or cold, and the nut threads engage properly to keep the hood secure during operation. Quality materials resist the kind of wear that leaves you fighting a stripped or broken latch again next season.

Good to Know

Installation takes just a minute—thread the nut onto your grill latch rod and secure with the knob. While you’re at it, put a drop of oil on the latch pivot points and check that the mechanism moves freely. Remember, you only need to snug the knob enough to hold—over-tightening puts stress on the grill mounting points.
