I believe the side moldings are also available from: www.gmpartsdirect.com as well. Logic would lead you to think that, but I've looked and was only able to find molding for either a standard or extended cab there. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong spot, if you can direct me I would appreciate it. Som...

Me being new, I'd bet I'm the only one who didn't know about this source, but......I was seeking a source for the factory body side molding for a CC, and found this. I know I've read where some have questioned about a source for flares etc.. These guys are pricey, but it looks like they might have t...

Thank you HJ, much appreciated. I've not taken any action yet, but I will soon to see what I can find in my area. There doesn't seem to be many active members near me. If I am fortunate enough to uncover more than I myself can use, I will secure them and post, keeping my fellow members in mind.

Does anyone know a paint code for the fender flares on a ZR5? Found the code for the body of the truck, but the flares etc. are a heavy metallic grey of some sort and I'm not finding any sort of code for it.

turkeestalker

Easier to replace when my boys break them. and cheaper, but then compared to the ones you guys have installed it might look like I'd be the guy to 'camo' his truck! Or that my next big home improvement project might be something to the effect of losing the axles and adding a permanent foundation? :l...

Hmmm...since my big 'D'....sorta been doing a little 'soccer mom' hunting, so to speak....a couple haven't seemed to mind. Of course without the blood letting. :wink: I don't think I'd mind the composite. Of course I won't be wheeling crazy either. Aluminum might in fact be stronger in some instance...

I've got lots to address prior to shields, as you know, so I've lots of time. Thank you all.

turkeestalker

Good logic and much appreciated. A woman that I've been seeing is about to trade a '98 Blazer in on a Buick, not what I'd deem a pretty good trade. Maybe I should talk her into letting me swipe hers before she trades it in!

turkeestalker

Perfect, thank you all.

turkeestalker

Thank you f9k9, and green, I had read that some time back. What I was hoping I guess was that there are specific years of specific vehicles to search for in a salvage yard to try and obtain plates that will work. I'm a 'cheap skate', and would prefer finding them used for say 5 to 25 bucks a piece, ...

turkeestalker

I've seen in a few posts that many Blazers and non-CC S10's came with steel or aluminum skid plates standard. Seems they differ slightly from model to model and maybe year to year. Can anyone point me to a thread that actually runs down the years, models, etc. that would adapt, as close to a factory...

turkeestalker

This may not be nearly as attractive as the cup holder pictured that you've installed Jim, but with my wrecking crew, um I mean....my boys, it is simple and easy to replace once they've, we'll say 'used' it. It is just a simple cheapo available almost anywhere for under $2, the ones designed to slip...

turkeestalker

So that is what mine will look like should I ever decide to put a cap on! Looks great....and strangely familiar in white!

turkeestalker

Misery, yes.....er Missouri. But 44 will only seem young later on.

turkeestalker

I was hoping that the Delta 'Champion' series would be better constructed, I've seen what you mean by flimsy. Since I have the ZR5 package I didn't want to lose the rails, so the fact that it sits down inside the bed looked attractive. WeatherGuard does make the same chest I had in a 36", but at les...

turkeestalker

Was thinking the same thing myself.....remember.....the show me state. Some of us are thick headed enough we gotta see things to understand.

turkeestalker

So lose the 2.5 and put the 1.25 on the rear and things should work for the time being.
Baby steps.

That they will, and yes .... it does.

In my '98 extended cab I used a 46" WeatherGuard chest box. It fit nicely ahead of the wells and worked like a water tight trunk for groceries and everything. I miss it. With the bed on the CC, it will obviously not work, so I've been searching for an alternative. the way I fastened it was a half in...

turkeestalker

I may kick myself for asking this......but is there something that I am not listening to still? Or maybe missing?

turkeestalker

Slowly.....Jim raises his head out of the hole he dug for himself, (thank you f9k9 !).....and looks around......seemingly safe, he chooses to post a reply once again. I've finally decided what I wish to do with my truck to start with, based on the advice, insight, and direction that I've received fr...

Our trucks have bed space??

...of course I'm teasing, but I was surprised at how little space there is compared to my '98 extended cab S10, and it seemed mighty small when you started putting things in it.

turkeestalker

Fun link, thanks. They've some great clips available there to view. Like the hood accent, not sure that it is functional, rather for looks I would assume. Knowing what 'assuming' can mean. Wouldn't mind finding one of those in black like that. Mine is an '04 in white with the black accents in the ZR...

You do use that quote, thanks for confirming it's original author. That was a magnet on my parents fridge when I was a kid, just stuck in my head. My father the baptist preacher had an FFL for a while when I was young and those were affordable to the average good citizen. Made aquisition of some of ...

Just saw your response HenryJ, after my last post. Any chance somebody that doesn't tend to clear out thier mail might still have an address in thier messages somewhere....or something? It would be good he knew if he doesn;t already. In case he ever finds the keys to his trigger locks.

Thank you, thank all of you. Your insight and experience is truly appreciated, as much as your tolerance and patience.

I can't stand admitting this, but I have to. I have been using the wrong names here, but that is obvious, I think. The email notifications that I receive list the name as 'Brule Lehman' that the reply is from, or so I was thinking, or not thinking. At this juncture I would say that I owe Mr. Lehman ...

turkeestalker

That sank in! Many thanks for the explanation, and much appreciation. Again, I was not trying to 'wrong foot' anything, and I do appologize. Just an example of how long it might take something to sink in.....um.....I just did connect the dots on the IFS and SFA terms.....no pride in that realization...

turkeestalker

I don't doubt that he could from the sounds of it. Mad or pissed is probably the wrong term, you coined it when you said 'frustration'. No foul, and again my appologies.

turkeestalker

By whats and whys I do mean pros and cons of either type of lift, or no lift at all.
I'll figure it out.

turkeestalker

Actually what I thought I had been doing was asking because I don't know, and wish to. My answers have been many, and appreciated, but not always directly answering the question that I asked, or at least not always offering explanation. I had said in the very beginning that I needed answers that I c...

williamcstonejr, ......and you smacked him upside the head .....right? ;) Brule, "You can already crank the t-bars beyond the ability to set the alignment properly. You can already crank them beyond the range of operation for the ball joints and Cv boots." That is exactly what I am trying to avoid. ...

I've been reading to try and gain some knowledge to apply toward what alterations I wish to make if any. Kind of thick headed, so my Ex always told me.

turkeestalker

Alright, this is what I am thinking, please tell me if I am way off base. I am just not sure that I care to lift the truck, I actually like it as it sits, simply want a little more rubber. I am considering cranking the tb just a bit, and shackles, to allow 30x9.5's, with 1.5" spacers on the rear, us...

Pardon my lack of knowledge here HenryJ, but the RPO indicates that the rear Axle gear ratio is 3.42...what does that mean...good or bad?

turkeestalker

Have no fear about the shocks...already on the list ahead of the tires, just thinking for now, thanks.

turkeestalker

Soccer mom truck......ouch! Alright alright.....you made your point. In all honesty, I know you're right. I would probably be far happier with the overall appearance if I did lift it the minimum, and add more rubber. So a 2" body lift and 30x9.5 will have no issues. If I could ask, what would spacer...
