How should the hood be removed and installed safely and correctly on 2008 Mazda Tribute?

The weight of the hood makes it almost impossible without at least two individuals to remove and install it. Keep the body covered with blankets, unscrew the interfering cables and draw alignment marks in the hinges. Once removed, replace it with correct centering of the hinge bolts to marks, fit latch assembly, and align the hood with fenders. Oil the latch and the hinges.
