1989 Arctic Fox Build Thread

newer style color matched with phantom grille? my friend stew has that on his supercharged, bodylifted, color matched, noisy timing geared, t56'd truck and i love it.

Maybe I wonder if anybody can photoshop a phantom grille on mine I doubt it would look good especially the color matched part....

I wouldnt run a phontom grill on a truck that sees mud, more detail to clean, if anything id run the 94+ grill and get billet inserts and get the headlights like 88gmctruck has with hids

After not being able to see without my KC's on I'm ready to get some HID's. 88gmctruck has HID's on his 88 gmc? I kinda want to keep the dual headlights.

Yes he has the h4 style conversion headlights which just replaces the sealed beam with a composite light that you can install hids in but keep the dual beam look

Sweet does 88gmctruck have what he did and how to on his build thread?

honestly you can pull the stock bulbs out and epoxy the lords ***** out to get the bulbs to stay.

 

[The Arctic Fox]

^ I bet that would work too, Isn't that how the stock ones are, just epoxied in?

 

[96k1500]

The ones Dave has is a wee bit easier tho as there is no epoxyin needed

 

[TylerZ281500]

yeppers, some are some have a set screw and a gasket. i dunno what depends on what. i had a bucket of them trying to regain my stock of them cause i have four brackets that id like to do the parking lamps the duals as well.......that may come with a different truck.
