Ytrica Hood Spring & Cable Kit for Peterbilt 357/377/379 (1987-2006) — 2pc OEM-Style Replacement with Stud Bolts & Retaining Rings

Ytrica’s 2-piece hood springs and cable kit is a complete replacement set engineered to restore secure, reliable hood lift and restraint on compatible Peterbilt 357, 377 and 379 trucks.

If your Peterbilt hood sags, binds, or feels unstable when opening or closing, a worn spring, missing retaining ring, or a damaged cable restraint is often the cause. This Ytrica kit bundles the key components — two hood springs, multiple stud bolts, cable restraint and retaining rings — so you can replace the worn parts at once and regain smooth, safe hood operation. The parts are designed to match OEM-style fitments and cross-reference numbers commonly used for these model years.
