    It's lower. Now I need new wheels.

    I finished up lowering my 1988 RCSB. I used Belltech spindles with cut 3/4 ton springs in the front. I was going for a 3ish inch drop in the front but I cut too much and ended up with almost 4. In the back I used Belltech lowering leaf springs planning for a 4 inch drop, but since the front...

    So, apparently not all 88-94 doors are the same...

    I've been restoring my 1988 RCSB, and just finished painting the cab. I stripped the doors down to the bare shell with the intention of replacing all the 30 year old, worn out components.

    Chrome grill with painted front bumper?

    Anyone have pictures of a Chevy with a chrome grill and body color painted front bumper? My truck is a 1988 RCSB and I'm painting it black. There are lots of pictures out there of trucks with front end all blacked out, but I haven't found anything with a chrome grill and painted bumper. Just...
