An off-road vehicle includes a frame coupled to one or more tractive elements, a cab supported on the frame, and a hood assembly coupled to the frame. The hood assembly includes a first hood coupled to the frame by a first hinge assembly and a second hood coupled to the frame by a second hinge assembly. The first hood is configured to pivot about the first hinge assembly independent of the second hood, and the second hood is configured to pivot about the second hinge assembly independent of the first hood.

A hood assembly for a work vehicle includes a hood and a hood pivot joint configured to pivotally couple the hood to a chassis of the work vehicle. The hood pivot joint is configured to enable the hood to rotate between an open position and a closed position. The hood assembly also includes a lift mechanism having a linkage assembly pivotally coupled to the hood and configured to pivotally couple to the chassis of the work vehicle. In addition, the lift mechanism includes a linear actuator coupled to the linkage assembly. The linear actuator is configured to drive the linkage assembly to rotate the hood between the open and closed positions.

A vehicle includes a frame, a tractive element coupled to the frame, an engine coupled to the frame and configured to drive the tractive element, and a debris shield coupled to the frame. The debris shield at least partially defines at least one of a left side or a right side of an engine compartment containing the engine. The debris shield includes an outer frame coupled to the frame and defining a ventilation aperture, an inner frame coupled to the outer frame, and a screen extending across the ventilation aperture. The screen extends between the outer frame and the inner frame such that the inner frame limits movement of the screen relative to the outer frame.

A roof assembly for a work vehicle includes a roof panel having a vertical peak positioned longitudinally between a forward end and a rearward end of the roof panel. In addition, the roof panel includes a forward surface extending from the vertical peak to the forward end of the roof panel, and the roof panel includes a rearward surface extending from the vertical peak to the rearward end of the roof panel. The roof panel also includes a ridge extending around a periphery of the roof panel. The ridge has a first gap positioned at the rearward end of the roof panel, a second gap positioned at the forward end of the roof panel, and a third gap positioned at a first lateral end of the roof panel. In addition, the roof panel does not include a channel extending along the roof panel.

A tool for installing a door striker pin includes: a latch engagement section having a first surface, a striker pin extending from the first surface, and an abutment surface that extends generally orthogonal to the first surface; and a pin positioning section coupled to the latch engagement section and including a positioning surface with a striker pin slot formed therethrough that extends in parallel with the striker pin. The striker pin slot is positioned in the positioning surface such that the striker pin slot is aligned with a striker pin installation location when the striker pin of the latch engagement section is engaged with a latch of a door and the abutment surface rests against a frame to which the door is pivotably coupled.

A roof assembly for a work vehicle includes a grab rail and a grab rail support coupled to the grab rail. The grab rail support is configured to couple to a roof structure of the roof assembly, the grab rail support is configured to support the grab rail on the roof structure, the grab rail support has a hollow passage configured to facilitate passage of a wire, and the grab rail support has an inlet to the hollow passage configured to be positioned at an interior of the roof structure to enable the wire to extend from the interior of the roof structure into the hollow passage.
