Key Features:

Designed to deliver superior cooling and durability, the AIT Racing SSK Style Functional Cooling Hood offers the following key features:

• Constructed from high-quality fiberglass reinforced resin for strength and lightweight performance
• Fully functional vent openings to maximize engine bay airflow and heat dissipation
• Gel-coat finish on both top and bottom surfaces for easy preparation and painting
• Utilizes factory hinges for straightforward installation without modification
• Includes aluminum wire mesh grill in vent openings to protect engine components
• Thicker and stiffer than factory steel or aluminum hoods, enhancing durability and rigidity
• Compatible with Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 models from 2010 to 2014

Construction & Design:

This hood is expertly crafted from fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), combining fiberglass and resin to create a durable yet lightweight component. The FRP material provides increased stiffness compared to factory steel or aluminum hoods, which helps maintain shape and resist flexing under high-speed conditions. The gel-coat finish on both sides ensures a smooth surface ready for custom paint matching your vehicle’s color.

The design incorporates fully functional vents with aluminum wire mesh grills, allowing hot air to escape efficiently while preventing debris from entering the engine bay. The hood is engineered to fit using the factory hinges, preserving the original mounting points and simplifying installation.

Installation & Fitment:

Installation of the AIT Racing SSK Style Functional Cooling Hood is designed to be straightforward by utilizing the factory hinge system. However, due to the thicker and stiffer FRP construction, some adjustments may be necessary. Rubber stoppers might require trimming or removal to ensure proper hood alignment and fitment. Additionally, because FRP hoods do not flex like factory steel or aluminum, fender alignment may need to be checked and adjusted for a seamless fit.

This hood is a special order item with a lead time of approximately 6 to 8 weeks, so planning ahead is recommended.

What's Included:

• AIT Racing SSK Style Functional Cooling Hood
