SUSUPACI Rear Bumper Hood Stop Mount for Freightliner Cascadia 2008–2017 — Left & Right 2-Pack, Closed-Cell Urethane

SUSUPACI Rear Bumper Hood Stop Cone Mount is a durable replacement hood-stop bushing kit that stabilizes and secures the hood on Freightliner Cascadia models (2008–2017), sold as a right-and-left 2-pack.

Loose, worn, or missing hood stops let the hood vibrate, rattle, or fail to latch fully — creating noise and potential hazards while driving. This SUSUPACI kit replaces OEM part numbers A18-59704-000 and A17-20868-000 (and equivalents), restoring a quiet, secure closure by fitting directly onto the hood latch catch and absorbing impact. Constructed from closed micro-cellular urethane, the components resist wear, scratching, and corrosion for extended service life.

How does this mount improve hood stability on the road?

When installed, the stop cone mount holds the hood in the correct position against the latch so it cannot bounce or shift under wind load or rough pavement. That keeps the hood sealed and reduces vibration-related noise that can distract the driver. The urethane material dissipates minor impacts, lowering stress on surrounding metal parts.

• Fits the rear latch catch to prevent upward movement and rattling.
• Absorbs shock to protect hood and latch during minor impacts.
• Reduces wind-induced hood vibration at highway speeds.

Is this a direct replacement for the original Freightliner parts?

Yes — the SUSUPACI mounts are designed as direct-fit replacements for the listed OEM numbers, matching the shape and function of the original bushings. They install in the same location and require no modification of the hood or latch. Each package contains both left and right pieces for a complete rear-mount swap.

• Replaces A18-59704-000, A17-20868-000, M17455UB and related numbers.
• Sold as a 2-pack covering both sides of the rear latch assembly.
• Direct-fit design preserves factory alignment and operation.

What material and durability can I expect from these mounts?

The stop cones are molded from closed micro-cellular urethane, a dense, impact-resistant material chosen for longevity and resistance to environmental degradation. Unlike softer rubber, micro-cellular urethane resists tearing, abrasion, and chemical corrosion, so the parts last longer in road and weather conditions. That lowers the need for frequent replacement and keeps the hood closure dependable.

• Closed-cell urethane construction for wear and corrosion resistance.
• Scratch- and abrasion-resistant surface preserves fit over time.
• Maintains shape and damping properties in temperature variations.

How difficult is installation and what tools are needed?

Installation is straightforward and follows the same steps as replacing the OEM hood stop bushings. Typically, you detach the old bushing from the latch catch and press the SUSUPACI mount into place; no welding or cutting is required. Most technicians or experienced DIYers can complete the swap quickly with basic hand tools.

• No special fabrication — press-fit replacement into latch catch.
• Requires basic hand tools; simple removal of worn bushing and installation.
• Works as a same-day repair to restore secure hood closing.

Who this is for: Fleet mechanics, owner-operators, and maintenance shops running Freightliner Cascadia trucks from model years 2008–2017 who need a reliable, long-lasting hood stop replacement. If your hood vibrates, won’t seat quietly, or the original cones are cracked or missing, this SUSUPACI two-piece kit restores factory-style fit and function without complicated modifications.
