Eastwood Company 31786 Hood Picker Puller Attachment for Engine Hoist

The Eastwood Hood Picker Puller Attachment transforms your standard engine hoist into a one-person hood and trunk deck removal system. This universal attachment eliminates the need for a helper when removing or installing vehicle hoods, deck lids, and hatch doors during restoration or repair work.

Key Features:

• Universal design installs on most standard cherry picker engine hoists
• Adjustable pivoting fingers accommodate various hood sizes and angles
• Heavy-duty steel construction supports the weight of large hoods and trunk lids
• One-person operation saves time and reduces risk of damage
• Works for both removal and installation procedures

How It Works:

Simply attach the Hood Picker to your engine hoist, position the adjustable fingers to grip the hood or trunk deck, and set the pivoting tilt angle. Once secured, remove the hinge bolts and use your hoist to lift and roll the panel away from the vehicle. The hood remains safely supported throughout the process. Installation is just as easy—position the hood back in place and reverse the steps.

This attachment is ideal for auto body shops, restoration projects, and home garages where space and manpower are limited. Compatible with the Merrick M998090 system.
