Re: custom grills

... here's the '69-'70 aftermarket grille out of my '72 Blazer that I KILLED a couple of weeks ago in my shop. I poked the trailer hitch on my Jimmy into the center of it. Replacement grille from Top Banana was $270 + $80 shipping. The P.O. got the billet inserts from LMC I think, luckily I didn't damage them. Trimming and fitting the new grille shell was a medium PITA. I like the original '69-'70 grille with the CHEVROLET logo better, but couldn't/wouldn't spend the $$.

Wink Re: custom grills

This is mine in the 71. The Bowties I think were out lawed at one time by GM. I got mine before they stopped making them.

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

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.
