    Is Jones still building, “A” model style hoods for a W9L flat glass? I thought they did but there’s nothing with the round style headlights, on their or 4-States website.

    Jones customer service is open Mon - Fri, give them or 4 states a call they will check for you.
    4 states also has another source that looks and fits good so check with them.

    I wish they would make A model headlight hoods for a W9B...

    What about the reverse? Square headlights in an "A" hood? :laughing-guffaw: b8f4b049cfe781089d05e261420e802c.jpg

    I knew south of the border, they were using up old inventory back in the 80’s.

    Think I'll pass on the Kenmex, talk about a light up truck from the factory though lollipops on the top and bottom of the mirrors!

    Yes. Just over $3600. They aren't under the regular kenworth hoods... look under truck rodz on the Jones website.

    Those Aussie trucks seem to sit up much higher than our trucks.

    I think they sit up higher because of the larger cooling system under the hood.

    Large radiator etc. Otherwise the hood would be longer for a thicker rad.

    A taller radiator would be easier to clean than a thick one.
