    Fender flares on stepside

    I was curious if anyone has tried or has succesfully installed factory flares on their stepside bed. I want to put flares, but don't want to spend $300+ on special ones. Wonder if I can use factory ones- I plan to take the side moulding off my bed and doors etc, and I want to bedline over the...

    OBS wheels

    Anyone have pics of OBS wheels on their GMT's? I am having trouble finding pics of them. I am thinking of getting either the quintessential 15x8 steel rally's with trim rings and center caps, or the 1989 blazer style aluminum rims that look like the baja wheels, or wagon wheels. I'm looking...

    Suspension work

    Well, I had to do ebrake cable on my truck saturday, and been thinking of lifting my truck since I got it, and after towing my trailer full of wood from my dads house to my house, the rear suspension dropped about 1 1/2" - Mainly I think because I had changed all the leaf spring hangers and the...

    alignment

    Anyone ever done their own alignment on a 1500 4x4? My truck has the torsion bars all the way at the bottom, and the tires have positive camber (i think it's positive- they tilt out at the top). I want to crank the torsion bars up about an inch, and I am afraid since the tires are already...

This is...

    Rear leaf spring, front hanger

    I know this has probably been asked before, but has anoyone found a front hanger for the rear leaf springs on a K1500? The drivers side one on my '91 K1500 is reallllly bad! I was looking at other dorman ones, and the F150 or Ranger ones look similar, but the bolt spacing is pretty far off...

    I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this thread, but I have a Leer fiberglass cap for my 1991 stepside, and I have no idea how it's supposed to attach to the bed rails. It has a few holes in the rails in the cap, but it didn't come with any hardware, so I am wondering if I just use...

    Accessory position no power

    My accessory position on my ignition is not giving me any power to the radio or anything else. The cylinder will turn there but no power. The cylinder is sloppy between lock and on, so I dont know if I should look at the cylinder first or the switch. Anyone run across this? Never had this...
