    88-94 mirrors fit on 95-98?

    any reason the old style mirrors wouldn’t fit on newer trucks? Same pins right? I want to get rid of my plastic mirrors. The caps keep coming loose. My 2nd drivers side replacement just took a $hit. Plus I like the old school aesthetic of the 88-94 style mirrors

    Shocks and front end parts advice

    I have some input regarding salt on the roads. When I rebuilt my front end I wire wheeled the frame pretty good all around, sprayed rust converter on and top coated with Frame paint - the usual diy. That only lasts so long since it’s all rattle can stuff so I sealed all the work in with RP-342...

    What size brake line to use?

    I’m upgrading to the NBS master cylinder and all of the rusty brake lines are being replaced also. Should I be using different size lines since I’m putting a newer master cylinder on? Thx for any advice

    K2500 6 Lug - half ton or 3/4 Ton?

    i have 95 k2500 5.7 std cab long bed. It’s 6 lug which makes me think it’s just a 1500 with 2500 springs but other wise doesn’t share any other goodies with 3/4 ton trucks. Would love some confirmation thx

    NBS master cylinder swap

    in the post re: this it mentions using the corresponding weight class cylinder. My truck is a “heavy half ton” k2500. I’m assuming I still have 1500 guts. Correct me if I’m wrong. Thx Also having trouble finding a booster. Can I just get the NBS booster? Will it bolt up? Thx

    Steering wheel off after shaft replacement

    I bet the xj shaft ends weren’t orientated the same way in relation to each other compared to the stock shaft. That’s the only thing that would make sense in this scenario. I hope I don’t run into this. About to grab one for myself

    Stock suspension hardware question

    im rebuilding the front end on my 95 Chevy k2500 std cab long bed. I can’t seem to find the control arm bolts for upper and lower arms anywhere. If anyone knows part numbers or has a source I’d appreciate it. I have the stamped steel lowers if that makes any difference. My 2500 has 6 Lug hubs...

    Calling all single headlight owners

    Gotta paint the grill black and use H4 housings IMO. I’m one of the few that likes W/T grills better in most cases. Looks beefier

    Why does no one make lower control arms ?????!

    Which trucks had the forged arms? All interchangeable ?

    Why does no one make lower control arms ?????!

    I guess. But no where in my post did I mention anything bout a ride height change

    Why does no one make lower control arms ?????!

    1. It’s 4wd hoss. Can’t lower those 2. Where did I say I wanted to lower my truck? Lol

    Why does no one make lower control arms ?????!

    I can order the smallest retainer or plastic cap for my truck and everyone makes 37 versions of it from here to Taiwan but a major component like a lower control arm is only made for 2 wheel drive trucks. Makes zero sense

    Why does no one make lower control arms ?????!

    For torsion bars (4wd) any idea?

    Headlight upgrade for sealed beams

    Well the sealed beams worked perfect before I plugged up the halogens. Went back to sealed beam and it’s all wonky (before I touched the harness). Then I upgraded the harness and all was well for about 15 min. Then one side shut down. Wiggles the pigtail- was back again- then not. Back to sealed...

    Btw. I reinstalled the sealed beams and it’s exactly the same. Lol. It can’t be the bulbs

    Headlight upgrade for sealed beams

    Part of me says leave well enough alone but after the investment, I’m committed to making these work. Guess I’ll have to pay someone to fix this. Hate that. I need to learn wiring. It doesn’t help that the harness had been modified for plow duty, which isn’t the culprit, but makes chasing the...

    Headlight upgrade for sealed beams

    So I guess I was wrong. After the harness install the problem persists. Back to square one. :banghead:

    Headlight upgrade for sealed beams

    I didn’t notice in search that anyone here has posted anything about these for w/t grill trucks so I thought I’d offer my 2 cents (learning the hard way) for how to install these (pics below and next reply). I will add links at the bottom for all the things I ordered. After deliberating a...

    Sealed beam to H4 conversion issues.

    Same wattage as sealed beams. I would guess that’s not the issue
