Best Replacement Parts
Like the title says, Im looking for the best quality, best fitting replacement parts to use during a rebuild.
Im getting ready to order all the parts to rebuild my doors, regulators, glass, vent windows, everything. I just want to make sure I stay away from the poor quality bad fitting stuff if possible. Thanks in advance.. |

Re: Best Replacement Parts

![]() I would order from one of the vendors that frequent this board. The nice thing about most of them is that they work on these trucks so they know what fits and what doesn't. That does not guarantee that some aftermarket parts will not need slight modification to fit correctly. It is a crap shoot at best... Here is a link to the Vendors Marketplace Forum. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/f...prune=-1&f=195 LockDoc

Re: Best Replacement Parts

Ive been trying to read as many build threads as possible to see what issues if any, were faced by the builder. I currently live in Katy. |

Also type the words "aftermarket parts" into the Google search box at the top of this page, click the circle in front of "67-72chevytrucks.com", and click on the "Google" button. The search results will cover all years so careful on that... LockDoc

Re: Best Replacement Parts
A little of both. It's full blown 67-72 truck parts store with a few trucks/Suburban/Blazers that they part out.

Re: Best Replacement Parts
Thanks!! I had no idea there was a 67-72 place close to home.
I appreciate the heads up Bigdav160 On a side note, I just realized I posted this in the blazer/suburban forum. My apologies, I should have posted in the truck forum. |
