Hood Cover for Palomino Aluminum Lift Arms (Pre-1987)

This is a factory original replacement Hood Cover for the aluminum arm lift system found on older Palomino and Vanguard pop-up campers (1986 and earlier models). This cover is designed to fit over the angled corner, or "elbow," of the exterior-mounted aluminum lift arm assembly.

Its primary function is to create a smooth, rounded surface that helps prevent the tent canvas from catching, snagging, or tearing as the roof is raised and lowered. A broken or missing hood cover can leave sharp corners exposed, risking damage to your canvas.

Product Details:

  • Function: Covers the elbow of the lift arm to protect the canvas from tearing.
  • System Type: For campers with four exterior-mounted, aluminum spring arms.
  • Compatibility: A factory original part for Palomino, Vanguard, and Puma campers from 1986 and prior model years.
  • Sold Individually.
