Hmm. Got a hold of them today. Says they only have them for 73-80. What kind of mods need to be made to make them work?

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

That's the front end he's usin..........jim

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

That is correct , I am using the early front end and no mods they just bolt in the factory bolt holes

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

So an 87 cab. Older front clip. Don't the older hinges go down into the cowl part of the cab. The 81 and up hinges bolt directly to the fender. Im asking cause I have an 83 and trying to figure out my options for the hinges.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

The earlier ones bolt to the fenders too. They just use that big-o coil spring.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

What paper did you stop with before you buffed it

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

That is so fine, great job...Jim

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

Mike I saw the hinges on their F/B page. It doesnt show or say much about them other than the few pics there. Do they use a strut or a prop? Can you show a pic of them mounted?

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

It was hard blocked with 1000 grit then on a medium block hit with 1500 and 2000 grit.. Then just to make buffing easier on a DA with a interface pad I run 3000 and 5000 grit over it..

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

These are just the mock up set I have here at my shop but they just fold over on its pivot point and holds the hood open and they actually work pretty good..

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

Looks great

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

No fuss, no muss and it bolts in without cutting? Even better than using a strut since its cleaner and cheaper. Do you think it would be an issue with gusty winds causing them to close?

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

Yes they are a bolt in hinge.. It would be really hard for the hold to blow shut because you have to give it a small lift to get it back past it's break over point..

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

Sweet. Now if I can get the guys at Sisco's to respond I may have found a solution for my worn hinges.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy

Mike... where is Square Peg now... is it in McCloud?... who was the body shop that did your work on Square Peg and who did the work on Cloud 9

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

Square Peg is back home with Mike well most of it, the top is still in McCloud, and it's with forum member screamchevypickup he's done all the body work on the truck.

As far as Cloud 9 I'm not sure just thought I would give you the info for Square Peg.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

The truck is in Arkansas and I done the work on square peg..

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
 

Yep what he said Kyle did the body and paint work on Square Peg and that is in McCloud OK

Cloud 9 was done body work and fab work by Street Driven Customs and paint by Jade Collision in North West Arkansas where I live
