    Cab Marker Light Placement

    Hey guys, just about to start drilling for my lights, wish me luck. I don't have enough posts to offer this in the right forum but if anyone needs a Haynes Manual I have an extra, just pay for shipping and it's yours.

    Long Drive Prep.

    Hey all, just an update - sorry it took me so long. I made it back to Maryland without incident and even got better than expected gas mileage (~13 mpg ave). The truck drove great and I got lots of comments along the way. Only one small glitch as I was trying to get out of Utah, had to have it...

    I ordered the truck-lite lights on Amazon ($11.00 each) but does anyone know if there is a wiring harness for sale anywhere. I can make one up but would rather hit the easy button on this one.

    Long Drive Prep.

    Hello All, I am fairly new to the Forum and hoping I can benefit from the collective knowledge here. My dad and i did a full restoration of a 1984 GMC Sierra Classic 4x4 Longbed a while ago (17 years) I have since moved across the country and he is now no longer driving. So I fly out to Utah...

    Nice, I am just outside of Rockville, MD - I leave this next week to drive my '84 out from Utah where it has been sitting since we moved here last fall. Should be an adventure in my old truck.

    This is fantastic, thanks so much. When you have time how far back are the screws from the windshield molding?

    Cab Marker Light Placement

    Does anyone have a template or measurement for where the stock placement of marker lights would be on an 1984? I have a set of five OEM marker lights from Truck-Lite and want to put them on my '84 GMC K2500. I am going for a stock look so I want to make sure they are in the right place...
