PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT: Eddie Motorsports’ Billet Aluminum Kinetic Style Hood Hinges for Slammed Squarebodies
Say Goodbye to Hood Bends with High-Strength Billet Aluminum
Built Specifically for Slammed Trucks
These hinges aren’t your grandpa’s stamped-out hardware; these are CNC-machined, 6061-T6 billet aluminum works of art, crafted for modern trucks with slammed setups. They’re engineered to clear modified wheel tubs that accommodate larger wheel diameters, giving your low-riding Squarebody the functionality it needs without sacrificing style.
High-Strength Precision
Made from high-strength billet aluminum, these hinges are built to last. Eddie Motorsports didn’t just slap something together—they engineered these hinges with the kind of precision that’d make a Swiss watchmaker jealous. Utilizing sealed bearings and stainless steel nitrogen gas struts, they guarantee smooth, reliable operation every time you pop your hood.
Bolt-On Simplicity
These hinges bolt right into the factory mounting holes, with elongated slots for easy alignment. Translation? No mods, no headaches, just buttery-smooth hood action. Whether your truck’s hood is steel, fiberglass, or carbon fiber, these hinges are a direct bolt-on application. Just specify your hood type when ordering, and Eddie Motorsports will deliver the perfect fit.
Why Go Billet?
You’re not just swapping hinges; you’re swapping problems for solutions. Stock hinges dry up, bind, and leave you with a hood that’s bent like a pretzel. The Eddie Motorsports hinges ditch those garbage compression springs for stainless steel, nitrogen-filled gas struts. Translation? Smooth operation, every time. And let’s talk about style—these things are available in eight different finishes hotter than a big block on a dyno pull:
- Polished like chrome
- Matte or gloss black
- Clear anodized for that stealthy silver
- Bronze, because why not?
Quality You Can Count On
Proudly made in the USA, these hinges are sold in pairs and represent the pinnacle of American engineering and craftsmanship.

Say Goodbye to Hood Bends
We’ve all seen it—Squarebody hoods buckled in the middle because those OEM hinges went on strike. Dry, crusty, and unlubricated, they lock up and turn your hood into a seesaw. Eddie Motorsports’ hinges eliminate this nightmare with smooth ball bearings and top-tier engineering.
Smooth, Tough, Reliable
At every pivot point, you’ll find sealed ball bearings that ensure flawless operation. Couple that with stainless steel gas struts, and you’ve got a setup so slick, you’ll pop your hood just for the fun of it.
Why Wait?
Eddie Motorsports’ Billet Aluminum Kinetic Style Hood Hinges for 1973-80 Chevy Truck – Slammed are the ultimate upgrade for your Squarebody. Specifically designed for slammed trucks, these hinges are tough enough to handle daily abuse, stylish enough to steal the show, and functional enough to give your hood the support it deserves. Don’t just fix your hood problems—obliterate them.
