Used Dakman’s hood shake mitigation solution yesterday (¼ inch diameter flexible plastic gas line inserted into hood gaskets) and it significantly reduced vibration and hood shake. 6’ is exactly the right length.
To give credit where it is due, I got this info from member Canuck in the thread titled " Hood Vibration Flapping Bouncing".

Having to reinforce the rubber insulation on a few of these replies leads me to think the rubber bumper stops are not adjusted properly. One response here mentioned this.

My 2023 has the front bug deflector, and did not before or after this install have the vibration/flapping/bouncing hood syndrome; not at any speed (legal speed limits).

I don't think I have the flapping hood issue either. I was on the road doing 75 mph for over an hour and never noticed anything.

I wonder if there where so many complaints that Ford did some assembly line corrections to the hood install/adjustment?

Who installed the nudge bar? Any problems keeping the hooks with it? I’ve got the same set up and it took awhile to find someone who would/could do it.

Any particular reason why you chose EGR over other brands? TIA

Hi I did install it . Well no not so much just cutting the bracket around the hooks that’s all

its ok to cutting the bracket its only for lights not towing the hooks are made for towing

I’ve always had good luck with EGR, I didn't want stick on’s, partial to brand loyalty I guess.
