Bonnet Bounce on the Wrangler JK

If you own a new style Wrangler JK you will know what I mean, get up to a speed in excess of 60mph and the bonnet starts to flutter, which can get a little unsettling. Daystar offer an upgrade for the stock bonnet latches that utilize a weak and stretch-prone rubber that is the cause of the problem. A suspension lift only aggravates the problem by allowing more air to push up on the underside of the bonnet. The daystar upgrade is a direct replacement for the factory rubber used in the bonnet latch. Constructed of a heavy-duty polyurethane material, they provide a more positive lock that keeps the bonnet securely shut regardless of vehicle speed. They utilize most of the factory bonnet latch components, so the upgrade looks factory once complete.
