1963 truck, suburban tail lights
 
Anyone ever tried putting suburban tail lights and sheet metal onto a truck rear end? I like the look of the suburban tail lights much more then the truck tailights, and the fabrication work would not be too much of an issue. Anyone ever tried this?

You'd have to narrow the tailgate too. Take a look:

Old Thread I know, but this would be cool to see. This thread is a few years old, has anyone done this or have pictures of this done or even the other way truck lights on a burb.

I had always thought this would be a cool idea.
But when I looked into it I saw that it basically couldn't be done with existing parts. you would have to use the tops of suburban quarter panels to get then to work.

the truck bed/gate are cut down a bit compared to a sub.
