I "heart" classic parts, even though they recently raised their prices.

Re: More parts for my C10!!!

yeah, unfortunately, i opted out from buying their bumper brackets as they said on the phone today theres no "kit" for 81-87 trucks, and the 4 brackets ALONE with no hardware was $206.80! So i ended up buying the LMC rear bumper brace KIT WITH hardware for 130, as well as the "32" pc. bumper bolt kit for 20, both totaling $149 together, which is probably about $100 under what id pay from classic parts

Re: More parts for my C10!!!

alrighty guys, got truck buttoned up tonight, got 4 shocks on, got exhaust dumped, and took a few vids of exhaust, one before the dump, one after dump in the air and one after dump at ride height.




Let me know what you guys think of exhaust sound difference, it DEF sounded diff in person, not sure how well video will show the diff or not.

Re: More parts for my C10!!!

109.95 is one hell of a deal. I just ran that part number through OEConnection and theres only 5 dealers in the whole country with one in their inventory! The cost alone from GM is 203.68! I'm definitely gonna be getting one for my truck!

Re: More parts for my C10!!!

so one last thing i found out was that my front tires WOULD NOT work with the drop kit AT ALL. I got truck done and went to back out of my driveway, went slowly and at an angle, and my tire STILL contacted my inside lip of outer fender, ripping/cutting CHUNKS off my treaded sidewall/corner of the tire and slightly bending down the inside lip of the fender, so saturday morning i went to 3 places for a mad dash on new tires. Heres what came about.


Old Tires









New Tires
