ZS7TAO Hood Side Bumper Rubber Stoppers 2PCS — Direct-Fit OEM Replacement, Restores Hood Alignment

These two ZS7TAO hood side bumper rubber stoppers replace worn or missing OEM hood stops to restore proper hood alignment and reduce vibration on compatible Chevy, GMC, Buick and Cadillac models.

If your truck or SUV hood sits unevenly, rubs the fender, or vibrates while driving, worn hood side bumpers are a common culprit. The ZS7TAO 2PCS hood side bumper set is manufactured as a direct-fit replacement for many Chevrolet and GMC applications — including Silverado, Sierra, Tahoe and Yukon XL — and also fits select Buick Rainier and Cadillac Escalade/EWV models. Each order includes two rubber stoppers built to match the original mounting form and restore factory clearance where the hood meets the fender.

How will these stoppers affect hood fit and vibration?

Replacing degraded or missing hood side bumpers corrects hood height and reduces contact that causes squeaks or rattles. The ZS7TAO rubber material cushions the hood edge, helping it sit evenly and preventing paint wear from repeated rubbing.

• Restores factory hood clearance and alignment.
• Absorbs vibration to cut down on rattles at speed.
• Prevents metal-to-metal contact and paint chafing.
• Direct-replace design matches OEM mounting geometry (15735963).
