Fixed my cab noise. How do I make my W900 hood fit properly?

    I have a 2004 W900B that I have been obsessing over. It had an interior shake like it was missing cab or engine mounts. After multiple attempts to fix it I finally sat down with the best Kenworth parts guy and went through the build sheet and found that there were supposed to be spacers between my cab and mount. The old mounts had worn a groove in the cab bottom and they could be overtightened. Now the truck is quiet inside. The spacers moved how the hood aligns and it never fit very well anyway. Does anyone know the procedure for proper hood fitment? Any help will be appreciated.

    I attached the documents I have in regards to the hood adjustment procedure. These schematics are for my 2013 W900L, not sure if the procedure is identical to your W900B. I'd say it is but not 100% sure. Hope this helps you out.

    Thank you very much. It looks like it will help me get it right. So far I have been guessing.
