    need wheel/paint help

    I'm all about some PD. My grill and bumpers are PDd. I just don't like the idea of it on my wheels. But I might do it. Thanks.

    need wheel/paint help

    So I have the black summit steel delta 16" wheels and I like them fine. Everything on my (pewter) truck is either pewter or flat black. I detailed the truck after hunting season and realized these wheels are way too shiny; they looked better covered in a haze. Is there an easy way to knock...

    does anyone have any input on these headlights?

    My original lights (196K) are pretty dull and I've done everything to keep them clear but it doesn't last. AND I have no chrome on my truck; it's either pewter or black so I'm looking for something dark (especially the corners) but need decent output. I have silver stars in if it matters. These...

    does anyone have any input on these headlights?

    Were they a real headache to get straight (i.e. what did you have to do?) Are they very bright?

    2 inch body lift questions

    All I did was the e-brake. I don't know what the big deal is with everyone having problems with it. It was cake. I didn't use the filler extension either; I just loosened up the rubber, lifted the bed and then went back and tightened it back up. Fits fine (on mine.) There wasn't really anything...

    anyone added a 12v charger plug in the console?

    Thanks. I spent about 50-11 hours online at work yesterday and found those. Any of those would be slick. Regards, B

    anyone added a 12v charger plug in the console?

    A USB charger would be a lot simpler and cleaner. Is there an easy/cheap way to do that? NVMD, I see now. Thx, B

    anyone added a 12v charger plug in the console?

    So I added the AUX input to my CD player and now I HATE having to run a cord from the OE charger on the bottom of the dash to charge my phone. Is there enough room to add one somewhere in the console or on the side of it? I think newer GMs have an additional one in the console. I have a feeling...

    Adding AUX Input to OBS Stock Radio

    Here's a pro tip if you're splicing into a cd player HU: don't shove a blank cd into the player to enjoy your aux input music or you'll hear a 1 second pause EVERY 68 seconds. Don't know why, just saying.

    This truck is looking more and more familiar. Put some black OE style flares on it so I can see what mine will look like. ha. B

    Yeah, what he said, "How can this be done on a stock tape deck w/o the cd player. Or can it....."

    Un-cranking and repairing damage questions

    Yeah, I checked ball joint slop with a pry bar. They're good. I don't know how. Isn't a 2 jaw tool the same thing as a pitman puller? Thanks, Brent

    Un-cranking and repairing damage questions

    Alright, 98 Z71 193K with all original front end with a 2" block, cranked to level with a 2" body and 35" Coopers on stock wheels. It's been cranked that much for about 2 years and I'm just now paying for it. I realize I've done it to myself and I've learned my lesson well. I need tires...

    Will NNBS blocks/bolts work for us?

    Is the weird shape meant to hold them on the perch better or what?

    Will NNBS blocks/bolts work for us?

    I got a line on some OE NNBS blocks but they're not just like the OBS blocks; they have a lip on the ends. Is this to help keep them in the carrier better? Will they fit our trucks ok? B

    I didn't need any of them. Everything stretched out just right. 2" kits are less trouble. B

    left over 2 inch BL parts

    Thought I'd give some of the more enterprising types (that make their own body lifts) a heads up: Performance Accessories 112 body lift parts 94-98 GM 1500/2500 trucks These are the parts I didn't use from my kit. This is everything except for the lift blocks/bolts and front bumper...

    2 Inch Body Lift ...regular cab/short bed

    Anyone know why there were three of the smaller diameter spacers in my 2" kit? The parts list shows only two but the photos show three and I was shipped three of them. I'm referring to the ones meant to go at the very end of the bed. Thx
