    Problem with Lights, Dash and Tail

    I know there have been tons of different light threads, mine seems a bit different than the others I've read. That and I'm an idiot when it comes to Vehicles. I'm a network guy, who programs routers, writes scripts, a bit of HTML and makes the internet work. I'm pretty much useless under the...

    Tail Gate Latch ideas?

    So I can lower the tail gate and see the panel there. There I will have switches for the shaved doors so if they fail and battery terminals, so if the batt goes dead, I can power it up. The bed might be deeper than that, I need to measure my 8 port airtank and see how it comes out... I just...

    Tail Gate Latch ideas?

    So, when if I ever get to that point, I want to have my tailgate latch shaved and relocated or eliminated (factory style that is) I'm looking for some good ideas for latching it. If I get to that point, the bed floor will be raised up high enough to where the bed will only have 3-4 inches of...

    Is there anyone here who is really good a Photoshop or some other graphics program and could do a few things for me?

    I can get that... I have it, or had it. My laptop just died with it. But even with it, I could convert from Gif to JPG or JPG to Gif or whatever, Shrink, Crop, Rotate, basic image manipulation, but as far as any skills on editing an image or making something worth looking at I'm out...

    1. Would be slamm the truck almost to the ground, few inches off. I doubt I'll ever be body dropped. 2. Mess with some colors for me? I'm trying to come up with a plan/color scheme. I'm building my truck for Shows and cruises... Just for fun, totally not practical I get it. I want a color...

    Piece of _____ Liars on Craigslist!

    OP, the condition of the truck in reality vs the CL ad, strongly reminds me of my 82 I bought of FB Market place a few months ago. Online and in person, he acted like it was a pretty much Mint, when it was really just as you described, actually after removing the carpets and a few contractor...

    Sticky thread for lowering C10s?

    Hey Chuck, welcome to the site... Zero issues with your post. Have you looked at Belltech??? I've had several Trucks and SUVs lowered and I always used Belltech parts. As far as the lowering HW I'd look at this Bell Tech Drop Kit. Then add your own shocks as you see fit. I know you said you...
