Kenworth T880 Short Forward Axle Repair Kit

Polyvance’s Kenworth T880 Short Forward Axle repair kit is the latest addition to Polyvance's growing line of Kenworth hood repair kits. The Kenworth T880 set-forward front axle hood is susceptible to damage of the strut mounts. The hood is made from fiberglass which is not weldable. Polyvance's new KEN T880SFA repair kit is an economical alternative to replacing the hood and will also create a repair that is as strong as the original.

The Kenworth T880 Short Forward Axle repair kit includes two custom-cast aluminum caps that fit over the contours in the hood where the struts mount. The caps are bonded to the hood over a large area using Polyvance's 2510 PlastiFix two-component methacrylate adhesive. The KEN T880SFA kit includes two 200ml dual cartridges of the 2510 PlastiFix adhesive, one for each side.

Detailed instructions and installation videos can be found on the KEN T880SFA webpage. There is one video showing the step-by-step process to repair a damaged strut mount and another video showing the step-by-step process to make a preventative repair on an undamaged strut mount.

Polyvance also carries repair kits for other T880 hoods, as well as the popular T800 and W900 models. All Kenworth hood repair kits can be found on our Kenworth Hood Repair page.
