    LED dash light replacements

    I replaced my dash lights a while back with LED replacements, but they aren't anywhere near bright enough. (I went with a red color). What kind of LED bulbs have you guys used that were bright enough?

    Repainting Yuba Gold

    My k5 is going to get repainted. I'm planning to go back with Yuba gold. Does anyone have some examples of yuba gold, or other shades that were offered by the factory in the 70's and 80s?

    My 87 K5 sent to the bodyshop to patch some floors has snowballed, is the understatement of the year. The pivot stud on the bottom of my driver side vent window has been broken for years. The body shop guys said that it putting all the rubbers back on the vent windows is difficult because of...

    Rear Splash Panel

    I've been unable to find a vendor the reproduces them. I find things that look similar, but then realized they're the "back" of the front wheel houses.

    Rear Splash Panel

    I have my '87 K5 at the bodyshop. He has recently restored two 73-75 blazers and he showed me a panel at the rear of the back inner wheel wells. They bold to the very back of the wheel wells and hang down like a splash guard. My blazer is missing these panels. It has the holes for them. In...

    Which axles to buy?

    OK, I think I may have figured out the confusion, and it's cause is on account of I'm an idiot. This is a 6 lug, not a 5 lug. I haven't driven the truck in many years and it's in my friends shop while we get it back in shape. I had thought it was a 5 lug. I went over tonight to get some...

    Which axles to buy?

    I'm not sure I understand. I've had this 12 bolt rear end in my K5 since 2006. I already have new ring and pinion, carrier, install kit... I have everything, except when we got inside of it, the axles need to be replaced. I just need new axles for the rear housing. When I go to look them up...

    Which axles to buy?

    This rear end originally came out of a Chevrolet Truck, but I do not know the year. Are there any identifying markings on the housing anywhere that would let me know exactly what type of axles, or what type of truck this came out of? Anything to point me in the right direction?
