    Stereo install from new to oem

    My 87 stereo hole has been cut to fit a new style head unit. Is there any way to return an OEM without replacing the. BEZEL? Also, where do you find the new head units made to look OEM? I want the original style with the upgrades of new, digital, USB port etc... t.i.a.

    Bumper Gaurds

    I got a set on Facebook marketplace for 65 bucks. Ebay wants 150-250 a pair. The ones I got I had to grind the bumper off as they were cut out of the truck. That was the worst part but rubber is good and they show appropriate age for the vehicle. Couldn't be happier with them.

    Good job. Ive got to tackle mine sometime soon. It looks a little worse than that to start. I bought some bondo and planned on using some pieces of steel to fill in speaker holes

    Cleaning rust/scale out of radiator, OUT of truck...?

    I wonder if you could use hoshizaki lime scale remover. I use it on my commercial ice machines and it gets the crap off the aluminum. Just a thought.

    Bed tie downs?

    I am constantly moving odd shaped, heavy or light pieces of restaurant equipment, racks, furniture, stuff like that. Are those stake hole insert tie downs no good? I read they can bend.

    What needs to be done?

    I just put a phantom grill on mine and I love it. I also searched for months to find the bumper guards, not to mention 5 hrs. Of labor putting them on. The grill is easy to change and it will create a whole new look. Stick the original in the garage for backup. About to do led dash lights, in...
