:lol::lol: My bad..
Jeff, does your tailgate dance and sing
while you are running down the road:lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

you could also use seat belt latches....


as far as rattles, you could drill the hole over-sized and put a rubber grommet in it to cushion the sliding bar

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

That's just not a hat rack you got there is it Joe??....:lol:
Thanks

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

I'd get the ones from mar-k. So when your haulin a load it can take it. I could see haulin something and the sheet metal screws ripping out.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

:rolleyes:


Jason, what screws?
weld those puppies on!

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

I wouldn't be the only one on here with screws loose....
I do remember seeing the seat belts installed and I really thought that was a slick idea.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Good looking work, David!:metal:

And yes, real men's trucks rattle. :lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

I know Mac...Tell Jason:lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Was it 502tripower? I have seen the seatbelt thing before to.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

No, it does not. I drilled the holes just barely larger than the pins and I have to lean on the gate to close it. It's tight. I know its hard to believe, but Im guessing that your tailgate isnt perfectly square...:lol:...mines not. It 'naturally' holds itself in place.

Ive seen the seatbelt latches in a couple places, but the one I remember lately was Hillbilly Deluxe....I think.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

notice the truck I'm getting has no latches or chains
it has the seat belt latches

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

I had to explain to my daughter and she saw how many flaws we have and that we are not ready for Gloss paint yet.:lol:.So back to flat for now.
And I put on the ranch plate..:metal:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

How about some gloss flames and call it good?

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

You and her are on the same wave link...kinda scary:lol:

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
 

Gloss flames with flat paint is cool looking. I saw them on an old olds once.

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build

Re: 4D'S "63" GMC Build
