Hood retainer cable for Polaris snowmobiles, 7080360

Hood retainer cable for selected Polaris snowmobiles

This replacement cable is listed under reference 7080360 for compatible Polaris snowmobile hood assemblies. Its purpose is to limit hood travel when the hood is opened. The photo shows one cable with a metal attachment fitting at each end; mounting screws, nuts and washers are not pictured.

Compare the cable with the retainer already installed on your sled. The fittings must match the hood and body attachment points, and the cable length must suit the intended opening travel. Reference 7080495 is also listed for comparison; confirm the required part for your exact model and year.

Use the model's hood parts diagram to confirm the reference and attachment arrangement. Cable length, fitting-hole dimensions and a complete model-year fit list are not provided here. Check those details with the supplier before ordering for a modified hood or an unfamiliar mounting layout.

Inspect the attachment points, hinges and existing hardware while replacing the cable. Support the hood during the work and follow the model's installation procedure. Open and close it carefully afterward, checking that the cable limits travel without pulling on wiring or interfering with closure. Check the hood latches separately before riding.
