Removing the spring only worked some of the time it still happened once and a while. I tried the zip ties it stopped the lift but I didn't like the way it looked. (jerry rigged) The dealer will laugh at you. So don't bother there.... The cure to stopping this is the Daystar Hood Wranglers. They STOP this from EVER happening again! I have had them for 7 months now and the issue is GONE.

Sorry about this...it might be a little off topic...
Someone was mentioning the air dam on the bottom of the bumper and I was a little confused. Do you need it? It is helpful to the air flow or does it hamper it. The reason I ask is because mine got a little bent while I was roading (you can still have fun stock too) and it jiggles and makes an annoying sound. Rather than zip tie the thing back in place I would rather remove it... good? bad?
thanks, sorry about tacking on your thread here

but if you're one of the guys like me, and others, I would tell you to get rear of it doesn't do anything, probably up to 90% or more of the mod jeeps in this forum don't have it, (its worthless)

Forget the dealer! I installed the Daystar, it was a cheap fix, no worries about losing my hood anymore (each flutter freaked me out), and very easy to install. You will not regret the small investment.
