1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Hood stop

thingiverse

I have a 1993 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo that was missing or had some broken parts under the hood. One of these parts was what I call a hood stop. There is on on either side of the front that hold the hood at the right level when it is latched. One of these had broken off and was missing so I decided to make a new one. This is based on measurements of the original and works. It is a little tight getting it started but then goes in fine. The threads could potentially be made slightly thinner but it worked as is. I will include a STP file if anyone wants to edit it. I printed it top side down on an Ultimaker S5 with soluble support. It is printed in ABS as I was concerned about the low glass temp of PLA. You should be able to print with break away supports also. I did 3 shells and 20% fill. Caution: You should make your own decisions about using this under your vehicle hood.
