show your grill

Let me see your grill. I'm trying to decide if I want to put the original 68 front clip back on or go with a new billet grill for the 70-72.

Re: show your grill

Not sure but I think they are MT's they were on one of my parts trucks and I had them polished. Only bad thing is they are 16.5 and the tires cost more for them and you are limited on suppliers

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: show your grill

That's where I'm torn, I love the looks of all of them. I'm trying to think ahead on what I want my truck to look like. That will be a major factor in which grill I choose.

Re: show your grill

Billet grills are nice..... BUT I love the look of the 67 to 68 grills the best. Here is my 67 truck grill a little rusty, but I just got done with the motor and suspension mods and now it is time for the body work.

Re: show your grill

I like the way the bow tie breaks up the massive grille.



That's a beautiful truck. Simple, clean and classic.
