MA WTB Leveling mats in real good shape

[Thealien]

As the thread title says I need some leveling mats.

Also looking for the chrome rear CST panel strips that go on the top of the rear panels

Parchment 1972 CST door panels with the stainless trim

Tailgate to side bed strips and rubber seals

Thanks
Mark

I have a leftover set of leveling mats from my 1971 Jimmy project. They have repaired cracks but are otherwise sound. I will pull them out of storage today, get them cleaned up and will send you some pictures. I have other leftover parts from that project also if you need anything that you didn't mention. Please PM me your email or phone #.

Yes, could you post a picture of the nicest set laid out showing cracks? Can't really tell from the pictures.

At your convenience, they won't be needed for months. I just want to get some while I can.

Thanks

Mark, I must have sold the good ones. I could only come up with 3 sets and I'm keeping the best for my k5 and the other 2 are not what you want.one set was cut out on the corners do to a role bar and the other set is dried out both have splits and tears. But these are hard to find in good condition.

[Thealien]

Surprised these aren’t reproduced yet

[Blazerowner]

I agree. I have two really good sets but I will never sell them because they are so hard to find.l in good shape.

These are probably not repops for two reason.
The lower volume of the Blazers/Jimmys.
Plus even though they are rubber and not steel part, the two parts are large rubber parts and also complex because of the peaks and valleys. This means higher tooling costs.
With the low volumes and higher tooling costs there is not return on investment to justify making new tooling.

We bought a bed rug mat for newer truck. They have the valleys for a pickup underneath. Wonder if it would match up to a blazer. Just a thought. If would have to be cut to fit and ruin it for use in anything else. But maybe look and measure the underside first. Or maybe find a friend that has one and look at underside of it and see if it will work first.?? Just a thought. I know beds are different now but maybe.??

Sounds interesting, I don't think I have seen a bed matt/rug with ridges. Do you have a link to one?

Im assuming this would be the option? Closest to the years of these and universal cut to length?

[painterljp]

The universal ones are NOT ribbed on bottom I dont think
I sent to the factory for samples. Will post pics once I receive them. Call the factory who makes them.

You sent a set of mats to them? Or they are sending you a sample?

[painterljp]

HiThey are sending 4 samples. One of each product so we can figure this out.

Excellent, looking forward to seeing what is available.

[painterljp]

They are supposed to send me samples. They finally called me back today. The samples are gonna be awhile due to skeleton crews working. . But in meantime I need some pretty specific measurements as I do not have a blazer. Wide and length of original mats and the measurements of the rib pattern on the underside like they are 2inches apart each one or whatever the measurements wind up to be. 1 7/8? . Are the ribs all same size and the overall thickness the mats is supposed to be. So width x height x length. Widest point. Shouldnt be to difficult. Cause guy told me they make them for toyotas dodge ford Van's, etc. So if we find one with the right spacing we could cut them down to fit. But finding the correct rib pattern will be trial and error. Once we have measurements of rib pattern should be able to match up somewhat closely. If all this makes sense to you all. So we all need to look at all our friends and family's truck to see what bed floor pattern matches the best. Or hell just go shopping at local car dealer with a tape measure. Let me know dimensions when you get a chance.

Excited to see the samples, thanks for doing that!
