How do you remove and install the hood on 2000-2011 Ford Ranger?

The hood is heavy and somewhat awkward to remove and install, so at least two people should perform this procedure. Begin by opening the hood and supporting it in the open position with a long piece of wood. Protect the paint by covering the fenders and cowl with blankets or heavy cloths. Scribe or draw alignment marks around the hinge and bolt heads to ensure proper alignment during reinstallation. Disconnect the underhood light connector on the driver's side and the ground strap on the passenger side of the hood if equipped. Have an assistant hold onto one side of the hood while you hold the other side, then remove the hood-to-hinge assembly bolts on your side before your assistant removes the bolts on the other side. Lift the hood off and for installation, align the hood and hinges using the previously made alignment marks, ensuring to tighten the bolts securely. For adjustment, loosen the hood retaining bolts and move the hood from side-to-side or front-to-rear until it is properly aligned with the fenders at the front, then tighten the bolts securely. Loosen the bolts securing the hood latch assembly and move the latch until it aligns correctly with the hood latch striker, then tighten the latch bolt securely.
